We chatted with Maihack about the show, the new book ( Queen of the Nile), and the long road his story and characters took from webcomic to 6-book epic. I envy all of you about to read the series for the first time. The first five books are phenomenally fun – and intensely rereadable – and an animated series from DreamWorks Animation just premiered on NBC’s Peacock streaming platform. Still, there’s never been a better time to become acquainted with Cleopatra, Akila, Antony, and all the rest. Sadly, the sixth – and final – book in the series is about to come out (from Scholastic/Graphix), and creator Mike Maihack will move on to other stories… and away from the queen of the Nile. Since the first book came out way back in 2014, and across the following four books, we’ve been enjoying the hell out of the ride. We’re huge fans of Cleopatra in Space here at Roarbots HQ.

It feels like I've been stabbed, but I can't let him see how much it hurts. I slide my knees beneath me and force myself into a sitting position. He cringes, wrinkling his smooth, dark skin. My spine arches, and I collapse onto the mat, air exploding from my lungs.

Despite the novel’s epic scope, Sal’s relationship with her beloved, Liette, remains personal, intimate, and heartbreakingly human throughout. Seven Blades in Black (Grave of Empires 1) - Kindle edition by Sykes, Sam. Sykes weaves the multiple converging plot threads with grace, and easily moves his myriad well-shaded characters through a lavish world and larger-than-life battlescapes. The Scar, a land torn between powerful empires, where rogue mages go to disappear, disgraced soldiers go to die and Sal went with a blade, a gun, and a list of seven names. By the time Sal discovers she’s been roped into a much larger magical conspiracy, the only way to save herself, those she loves, and the innocents around her is all-out war. Exhausted by her quest for revenge against the 33 wizards who betrayed her and stole her magic, Sal accepts a job from Two Lonely Old Men to steal a relic of enormous power from the airship fleet Ten Arrows, believing it will bring her one step closer to the vengeance and the peace she craves.

He has published eight previous works of fiction, Tamarisk Row (reprinted by Giramondo in 2008), A Lifetime on Clouds, The Plains, Landscape with Landscape, Inland, Velvet Waters, Emerald Blue and Barley Patch and a collection of essays, Invisible Yet Enduring Lilacs. Murnane’s mastery over language and his pressing towards the edges of what fiction can accomplish make this book a landmark in Australian literature.Gerald Murnane was born in Melbourne in 1939. From his native district in the Melbourne suburb of Pascoe Vale, Murnane’s narrator imagines another world, in Szolnok county Hungary, and within that world another, in Ideal South Dakota, each haunted by the betrayal of a young girl, each driven by the possibility of restitution. First published 25 years ago, Inland is one of Murnane’s most complex and rewarding works, a study of guilt, longing and regret rich in metaphysical insights. With Giramondo’s publication of Barley Patch and A History of Books, Gerald Murnane has attracted renewed interest as a brilliant writer and Nobel Prize contender.

Her Grace in Disgrace by Claudia Harbaugh in An Eastern Exposition of the Gospel of Jesus According to St. The Rise of Miss Notley by Rachael Anderson The Fall of Lord Drayson by Rachael Anderson I prefer the more reserved romances that are about the relationship and not about getting the other person into bed. I don't want any heaving bosoms, thank you. To set the record straight, I'm a fan of the sweet romances aka the "clean" or "traditional" romances. I've read dozens of books and some of my favorite books of all time can be counted in this genre.Įven though I know that a majority of them are ridiculous and sappy, I have a special part of my reader's heart reserved for historical romances. 2016 was the first time I picked up a historical romance (and I'm not including Jane Austen or any of the classics in this group, as they were generally contemporary romances at the time they were written), but since then I've become hooked. Granted, a majority of them are cheesy and/or sex-filled, which generally lands them straight in the reject pile for me, but the books I've found I love, I really, really love. I always thought they were cheesy, sex-filled pieces of crap, so I didn't have much use for them. This is a relatively new love for me (no pun intended). Das Kapital: A critique of political economy.
