A book cover for the book Project Tasman by S. Morgan Burbank. A woman with dark brown hair is free falling in front of a group of green, blue, and purple lights. She is wearing a blue zip-up hoodie and a black t-shirt along with blue jeans. She has black eyeglasses, as well as piercings on her right eyebrow and nose. She is watching a number of poker chips -- one each purple, red, yellow, black, and blue -- falling through the air near her. A sixth chip is resting in her right hand, this one colored white.

Unboxing the special edition He Who Ate the Wild by GJ Terral! It's awesome to hold this in my hand after getting to see all the behind the scenes work Greg has been doing in the last year to write, edit, and produce the book. So much love and care and it all turned out beautifully!

CartAugust 9 The forest surrounding the ruins of Paraducial have trees bowed outward and shattered boulders litter the clearing. The strange foundation of the former city is cracked in the middle. Nobody knows what happened, only that's it's been like this since the ruins were originally discovered

1111

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 08/08/2026

#CartAugust 7 The forests of Tembour are massive. Near the lake, it is swampy and there are cypress trees with their twisty roots. Further inland, the trees are so large that the town carved them out to make the Boscage School including a grand library.

150

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 07/08/2026

#CartAugust 7 Two great forests exist in Arathanon, one surrounding Buckwheat Lake adn the other that serves as the border between Benia and Munayallpa (Lithistan). The latter is mostly barren around Strongfair and they've resorted to importing additional lumber

181

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

#CartAugust 6 The natural landscape is harsh. There are no horses in Arathanon and travel by cart can be treacherous, so sailing is usually the travel method of choice. Though the Kaleenmunda Desert and Boral Mountains are the most dangerous places with their harsh temperatures and monsters.

151

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 06/08/2026

#CartAugust 5 The Haverhein River that flows between Buckwheat Lake and the Sea of Loctee is the most prominent waterway in the story. It is safe to travel for experienced sailors but has some tricky bends and sandbanks that could spell disaster to a beginner.

040

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

#CartAugust 4 Natural Barriers The Boral Mountains are the biggest barrier in the region, keeping the frigid country of Jash separated from the rest of the region. Two lakes split the continent in thirds and are the fastest and safest way to travel from city to city.

150

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

#CartAugust 3 Yes, the events in The Odyllic Stone have left a scar on the land and changed the map! Book 2 will contain the map of Arathanon as it exists after those events. A key scene of this book is a visit to this scar. Also very minor, we learn the name of a city in ruins, so that's updated.

130

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

#CartAugust 2 Yes, the world stretches beyond the boarders of the map, however the icy mountains up north and the rough waters prevent all but rumors from passing. The Kaleenmunda Desert is one of the least visited areas due to the lack of water. Huh funny that the name translates to water forest...

Alex Scheuermann @theodyllicstone.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

Hello I'm Alex and I write fantasy adventures (and fantasy murder mysteries). This is my map of Arathanon from The Odyllic Stone. It's hand drawn and took me a few months of practice, drawing, and redrawing until I was satisfied with it. Looking forward to telling you more about my map this month!

📚💙 BOOK REVIEW: I wasn't sure what to expect when I picked up DEATH SHOW COLOSSUS by @williamjadams3.bsky.social, but this was such a fun and creative book, full of action and heart. I highly recommend checking it out! Read the full review: fanfiaddict.com/review-death...

A graphic showcasing the book DEATH SHOW COLOSSUS by Bill Adams, which Adam recommended: "Death Show Colossus is a brutal, action-packed story of survival and rebellion. It’s got a lot of heart, and it’s quippy, and while it doesn’t break new ground—it’s not trying to. It’s just a damn good time." Full review on FanFiAddict.

📢COVER REVEAL📢 It's finally here! 40 hours of work and some very sore hands but I'm SO proud of how this cover turned out! 19th century sapphic coal miner rescues an air sprite stuck in a human's body. Out October 27th. Pre-orders and ARC sign up is open now! Links below due to space! 💙📚

Book cover in an art nouveau style with the title: The Turbulent Appearance of Brise Collier by Natalie Kelda and features two women in dynamic poses, one at the top right is reaching down towards the other at the bottom left who’s reaching up towards the flying woman. The flying woman has white-blonde hair and is wrapped in a partially sheer robe in pale blues and pinks. The woman falling at the bottom left wears Georgian clothes in dark earthy colours and has brown hair. Behind them is a winter-barren tree with lumps of snow on the branches. Blue swirls move between the tree’s branches.
