Life is truly blessed when you receive a package addressed from the Whimsy Department, and immediately think "oh, I know who that must be from".

But a true embarrassment of riches only comes when that first guess was wrong.

Recent Reads: A Philosophy Of Thieves. Fran Wilde's post-climate apocalypse heist saga holds multitudes: daring deeds, outrageous thefts, and convoluted family dramas. Meanwhile plot and counter plot in the feudal cities complicate things for our gang of rogues. Fight the power? No, outsmart it!

Cover art and snippet from A Philosophy of Thieves, out 9/30 — “He held the peat-tinged single malt on his tongue: casket offshore during the Mess, beautifully managed and preserved. He wanted that power someday, to make things he loved last.”
