3 of 5 stars for Dead & Breakfast (Dead & Breakfast Mystery #1), by Kat HillisRosiee Thor https://lordofthemoon.com/bookreviews/dead-breakfast-dead-breakfast-mystery-1/ #LordOfTheMoonBookReview #BookReview #BookSky

@barbaratruelove.bsky.social hello, do you know if 'Of Monsters and Mainframes' will be available as an ebook in the UK at all?

I've been thoroughly enjoying The Thirteenth God, by @djangowexler.bsky.social which has just come to the end of its first book. If you want to binge the whole thing, rather than read chapter by chapter, now's your chance. www.royalroad.com/fiction/1472...

The Thirteenth GodTaking down a god isn’t easy… In order to escape a prison at the edge of the world, con artist Kalsis Chiroptera agrees to do the impossible: overthrow the Princeps, the immortal ruler of all mankind...www.royalroad.com
