Naysh @nayshintheory.bsky.social · 30/12/2025Here are five essays that moved me this year: • Dimas Ilaw's The Shape of the Darkness As It Overtakes Us (www.uncannymagazine.com/article/shap...) • Dimas Ilaw's After a Revolution (www.uncannymagazine.com/article/afte...) 110
Naysh @nayshintheory.bsky.social · 30/12/2025My favorite short story of 2025 is @thomasha.bsky.social's In My Country (clarkesworldmagazine.com/ha_04_25/).

Naysh @nayshintheory.bsky.social · 30/12/2025My second favorite novel of 2025 is August Clarke's Metal from Heaven.

Naysh @nayshintheory.bsky.social · 30/12/2025My favorite novella of 2025 is @aptshadow.bsky.social's Lives of Bitter Rain. Deeply emotional with layered complexity, a really excellent contribution to the Tyrant Philosopher's series. 120
Naysh @nayshintheory.bsky.social · 30/12/2025My favorite graphic novel of the year is @sispurrier.bsky.social and @aaroncampbellarts.com's John Constantine, Hellblazer: Dead in America. The sheer depth of comics history, poetry, and creative sediment the team here excavates to produce this ambitious masterwork was beautiful to see. 141
Naysh @nayshintheory.bsky.social · 30/12/2025By far my favorite book of 2025 was @vajra.me 's Rakesfall. I posted some brief thoughts on it here (www.goodreads.com/review/show/...), written before it won the Le Guin prize.goodreads.comShyan's review of Rakesfall5/5: Reviews of Rakesfall emphasize it as “hallucinatory,” “not an easy book to read,” the “memory of a dream” that can be enjoyed yet not fully understood.
