Dreaming Towers, Hidden Mansions

@JaineFenn

Turns out the 'sparrow incident' wasn't a fluke. Yesterday Madame stalked, caught and ate a probably-shrew (it was small but chubby and had a short tail). Is it wrong that I feel proud of her?, Apr 20
Finished work so it's time for chores, starting with putting away that pile of clean washing... hmm, I don't remember washing that... https://t.co/01jjVitHow, Apr 19
Come to mamma me lovely! https://t.co/016W6eUgFB, Apr 15
If #BBC6Music keeps up this high quality for their 90s day, I foresee work being pleasantly disrupted by the frequent need to get up and dance/jump around. Especially loved hearing Transglobal Underground on the radio., Apr 15
The volume of landline junk calls is getting wearing, so before blocking them I now sing (badly) down the line. The last one got 'Always look on the bright side of life...'. The next one gets 'I am a cider drinker...' Most are just recorded scams, but it's still satisfying., Apr 13

Books

Principles of Angels

Khesh City floats above the surface of the uninhabitable planet of Vellern. Topside, it's extravagant, opulent, luxurious; the Undertow is dark, twisted and dangerous. Khesh City is a place where nothing is forbidden ...

Consort of Heaven

Damaru is ‘skytouched’ – he appears simple, but he is able to affect matter. All skytouched are tested by the Beloved Daughter, the living goddess who rules the world from the City of Light. If he’s found worthy, Damaru will become a Consort of the skymothers, the Gods of this world.

Guardians of Paradise

Most people believe the Sidhe are long dead, exterminated centuries ago when the males of the race rose up and fought alongside the humans subjugated and enslaved by the female Sidhe. But Jarek Reen knows better ...

Bringer of Light

Jarek Reen is trying to save a lost world. He discovered the primitive theocracy of Serenein by accident, and now he wants it to take its place in human-space. To do this he needs the Sidhe. Most people think the Sidhe are long dead, but Jarek knows better ...

Queen of Nowhere

The Sidhe look like us. They live amongst us. What they lack in numbers they make up with their fearsome mental abilities and the considerable physical resources at their disposal. But no one believes they exist. Almost no one.

Downside Girls

With a foreword by Alastair Reynolds (author of 'Revelation Space' and the recent 'Blue Remembered Earth', as well as 'On the Steel Breeze'), 'Downside Girls' is a standalone collection of interlinked stories, that also shines new light on characters from 'Principles of Angels', first novel in the 'Hidden Empire' series.

Hidden Sun

Rhia Harlyn is a noble in Shen, one of the dozens of shadowlands which separate the bright, alien skyland. She has a missing brother, an unwanted marriage proposal and an interest in science considered unbecoming in her gender. Her brother's disappearance coincided with a violent unsolved murder, and Rhia impulsively joins the search party headed into the skyland - a place whose dangers and wonders have long fascinated her. The dangerous journey brings her into conflict with a young rebel stuck between the worlds of shadow and light, and a charismatic cult leader who believes he can defeat death itself.
