something about the way the tarot sequence books are written makes the world building feel present enough that i keep wanting to google things? caught myself going "i wonder what lord star did that was so bad, i should google it" before having a wait now moment

luckily, buttered oranges are real googleable things and i will be trying to make them at some point in the future

The Last Sun by K.D. Edwards (The Tarot Sequence series)

Endorsement from submitter: "Totally immersive, absolutely gut wrenching, with the most fascinating of unreliable narrators, this series has me in a chokehold. This first book is the least diverse, but as the series goes on you get more female characters and more characters of color. I think one of the most personally striking things for me is how nice it is to read a book by an ace man about an ace man. We don't get near enough of those. Plus I will die on the QPR Rune/Brand hill. There are so few stories where one of the most crucial relationships in the book is neither romantic nor sexual and you can pry it out of my cold dead hands."

Rune Saint John, last child of the fallen Sun Court, is hired to search for Lady Judgment's missing son, Addam, on New Atlantis, the island city where the Atlanteans moved after ordinary humans destroyed their original home.

With his companion and bodyguard, Brand, he questions Addam's relatives and business contacts through the highest ranks of the nobles of New Atlantis. But as they investigate, they uncover more than a missing man: a legendary creature connected to the secret of the massacre of Rune's Court.

In looking for Addam, can Rune find the truth behind his family's death and the torments of his past?

The Javelin Program by Derin Edala (Time to Orbit: Unknown series)

When Dr Aspen Greaves signed up for the Javelin Program, humanity's first foray into colonising deep space, they expected to wake up to life in a thriving colony on a distant planet. Instead, they find themself five years away from their destination on a broken spaceship full of complex mysteries, dead astronauts, and a very unhelpful AI.

Aspen wasn't trained for any of this. But if they can't keep themselves alive, get the ship in working order, and find out what went wrong by unravelling a chain of mysteries leading all the way back to distant Earth, then neither Aspen nor the five thousand sleeping passengers in their care will ever see a planet again.

Fandom frustration: when you find a new hyperfixation but you’re 2 books behind so you can’t go read any fic or look at any art because you’re gonna get spoiled and you’re so damn impatient because you love them sooooo much. In related news, I finished The Last Sun by K.D. Edwards on Monday and am having zero chill about it.

Brand Saint John:

[wykedkatwynn]

Rune Saint John could trick any lie detector.

That boy lies to himself constantly and the man who can literally read his thoughts. His bullshit cannot be comprehended by a meager machine.
