NickPheas @nickpheas.bsky.social · 11hAlso (nothing for days and then a flood) Impossible Creatures by Katherine Rundell.

NickPheas @nickpheas.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Not a single solitary one. Perfectly happy to believe they're good books, but horror is not my thing. 020
NickPheas @nickpheas.bsky.social · 07/10/2026No, done in one. Unless make a publisher split it because 1200 pages is too much for a single binding. 100

NickPheas @nickpheas.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Have you read Great North Road? It manages to cram so much between two covers that it amazed me. So many times as it played out that I was going "you mean the woman in 2060 was actually the girl in 2040? Bloody hell, that suddenly makes sense!" Ok, the covers are about a foot apart. It is Hamilton. 100

NickPheas @nickpheas.bsky.social · 06/10/2026(an aside, or a thing to look for come the Artificial Condition launch) The pin I'd really like is one with a slider to show the wearer's current system reliability. I saw ones like it in @portalbookshop.bsky.social, but more mood than reliability. I'd want one for all the autistic folks I know 100

NickPheas @nickpheas.bsky.social · 05/10/2026It is clear that eventually there will be one state in the southern Levant. I would rather it was built on a principle of religious and cultural equality, where no one side was deemed second class citizens. If not that, the currently dominant class will murder or expel the rest. That would be bad. 082
