we require everyone's gay dollars please process them here (if you have straight dollars we will take them as well but the exchange rate is weird so you should give us twice as many)

To entice you, check out the illuminated manuscript beasties that @grimolkin.bsky.social has worked up, inspired by the books in the series. I'm still pricing things out, but I'm hoping to give all paperback backers 1 or 2 of these, or maybe a little sticker pack, if we meet the 1st stretch goal.

a bunch of derpy adorable illuminated manuscript beasties. spiders and mice and coytotes and triceratops and wolves and mushrooms and a moth and birds.

I think the last official official book to be announced in the series is @antoinettev.bsky.social's RED RHEN, an Afrocosmic space opera with impeccable prose, epic set pieces, and at its heart, an iron will that will never be forgotten.

Concept art of Farcry, from the fantasy sci-fi manga 🩸🪐DEEPSEEKER🪐🩸 She may not seem like your typical brains of the operation character, but she’s definitely part of the backbone of the gang and her knowledge of Miraji myths and legends has gotten them out of more than a few close call situations!
