Today's word is View. Today's #BookQW from SAVED BY THE SPELL (@dawbooks.bsky.social 2026) where the teachers are overworked, underpaid, & under appreciated. A student who turns into an elephant when stressed is no help. At all.

SAVED BY THE SPELL came out yesterday Nov 3. Available everywhere! 1/2
The cover of SAVED BY THE SPELL, a line drawing of a wobbly classroom with an eye staring out of the blackboard and emitting yellow and orange swirling things, is on the right. On the left, the quote. "Everyone, listen up!" Jeanette projected her voice through one of the charms hanging around the arena for those with low Air. "We're going to need to neutralize Mr. Chin's enthusiastic earth-moving before we release any more power in here, so I want you lot to head off to Arena Four, sit quietly on the viewing platform, and watch the twelves. You'll be quizzed on what you see next time we're together. Ms. Holt knows you're coming, so no skiving off to get a start either on homework or trying to take over the world."

Book Quote Wednesday's word is 'view' #BookQW #BookSky
Jadewin realises she must keep watch for those who should serve the Sun Goddess and the Moon God alone discarding their vows and involving themselves in issues of secular power.
www.amazon.co.uk/Riven-Kingdo...
The Riven Kingdom cover art by Alice Claire Coleman is in the style of a stained glass window. Blue-green leaves and vines dotted with golden flowers coil around silver swords in panels on either side. These are topped with a golden sun on the left and a yellow crescent moon on the right. In the centre, rival hands stretch upwards trying to get hold of a crown that's just out of reach... Book extract reads: Hasrine raised a hand. ‘You will not discuss our conversation with anyone within this temple or outside it.’ Jadewin nodded, but she wasn’t going to agree. Nothing in High Mother Elyka’s note granted Hasrine any authority to give such commands. ‘Your brother is Elgis Sernel, I believe.’ Hasrine stared at her again. ‘Saddle maker in Morin Lane, in the Serriden district?’ ‘My brothers are sworn to the Moon God and my sisters serve our Golden Mother,’ Jadewin said calmly. ‘Excuse me. I have duties to attend.’ She left the parlour and walked briskly back to the entrance hall. Once she knew what young Alory wanted, she would tell Mother Finevre about this conversation. Hurat’s senior priestess’s magical talent might be limited to glimpsing misshapen creatures that slipped through from the unseen realm but Finevre needed to know Velasta’s secret sisterhood wasn’t supporting Princess Idelina’s claim to the crown. As she went into the yard, Jadewin wondered if Brother Talaven knew the hidden brethren’s views on this proposed regency. Young Alory could enquire. ‘What can I do for you?’ she asked as the boy leapt to his feet.

It's book quote Wednesday, and the word is "view". I haven't done a quote from my Mars mystery novella, The Dinosaur Hunters, for a while, so let's go for that. Our heroes approach the Great Wall of Cyclopia in their airship.

#bookQW

Promotional graphic showing the cover of The Dinosaur Hunters novella, along with the text: As if in echo, the airship captain appeared in the doorway. “We’re approaching the Wall,” he said. “We must close off the viewing platform. Several species of pterosaur roost near the top of the Wall, and some of the larger creatures have been known to attack approaching airships.” The Dinosaur Hunters.

#booksky #bookqw word: VIEW. From THE SNAKESTONE GIRLS.

Letty Jansen is not, in fact, possessed. In 1620 they didn't have the word 'neurodivergent'. If nobody steps in this is going to go badly for everyone.

Pre-order: tinyurl.com/nddx4d5p
Text on old parchment style background, as if the image is a letter: My dear Jansen, I regret this must be a let to your studies, but I would have you know that your daughter Laetitia is afflicted. Whether she is ailed by means natural or diabolick we would gladly know. Of late she has been struck with a most fearsome delirium. It pains me to recount that she raves of strange things, and most sorry of all, she shrieks at the sound of prayer. These are not matters to be viewed lightly. If she is to be exorcised it must be by your leave, and I beg you will write to give charter that we do as we find needful. I hope you shall soon reply to he who writes you in fraternal kindness, Jas. Alinger

Cover art by Ben Baldwin for The Green Man's Debt by Juliet E McKenna. A grey wolf with pale eyes stands in the shadows of a derelict building with a black and white tiled floor. The wolf is looking straight at you. Its snarl reveals blood on its teeth and jaw. Book extract reads: Any time I checked the rear-view mirror, I saw Máiréad’s keen interest in everything we passed. Fearghal was slumped in his seat, sulking. Not long after we joined the motorway, Conn cleared his throat. ‘So, Máiréad, did you dream about anything last night?’ I glanced in the rear-view mirror and saw her shrug, unbothered. ‘No.’ ‘How about you? Daniel?’ Fearghal said my name with the same contempt he’d used for ‘Brit’ yesterday. ‘Had any good dreams lately?’ If he wanted to get under my skin, the surly git would have to work harder than that. ‘No.’ As I echoed Máiréad, I gave Conn a sideways glance. He turned in his seat to look at Fearghal. ‘Do you want to make your own way back to Dinan? We can drop you at the Red Cow. You can explain your rudeness to my guest to Eimer. Not you, Máiréad, you’re grand.’ Conn didn’t raise his voice, but we could all hear that he meant what he said. ‘No. Thanks for the lift.’ Fearghal hunched further down in his seat. I focused on the motorway ahead. As long as we had three lanes and smoothly flowing traffic, this would be an easy drive. That was good, because it would feel like a long one if Fearghal kept up that snotty attitude.

It is Book Quote Wednesday and the word is 'view'. In this extract from Mars Evacuees by Sophia McDougall, Alice and her friends find an alien spacecraft with it's invisibility cloak still working. #BookQW
wizardstowerpress.co...
‘And can you see a door?’ ‘No!’ I said crossly. ‘I can’t really see the stupid thing at all!’ I told myself I couldn’t reasonably be frightened of touching a Morror spacecraft after touching an actual Morror, so I went and cautiously patted at mid-air. I felt something surprisingly ridged and slightly damp, and continued stroking my way along the side of the thing. Then my hand suddenly pushed empty space and, from the point of view of everyone outside including me, vanished. I yelped and pulled my hand back, freaked out even though I could feel it hadn’t actually ceased to exist or anything and I knew I’d really just found the door. The others started getting down from Monica as I stuck my head through, and I heard Carl saying, ‘Christ that looks awful,’ at my apparently headless body from outside, which was more than a little hypocritical.

It's Book Quote Wednesday & the word is VIEW. In Cursed under London, Lazare's new and lofty view of Southwark is what makes him realise in his panic he's opened his wings, and is able to fly. #BookSky #BookQW Buying links: farragobooks.com/book-series/...
Quote from Cursed Under London. Quote reads: The two villains continued to stare in terror at the whatever-it-was behind him, and without warning, they were hit by a great gust of air that knocked both off their feet. A second gust sent them sliding from him on their knees. On the third gust, they seemed to become smaller, lower to the ground. They both scrabbled to their feet and ran. It was only when Southwark bridge came into view beyond the rooftops that Lazare realised what was happening. He glanced to his side and saw what they’d been looking at – his wings, unfurled, had to be six foot in span apiece, edged with four sharp claws, just like a vampire’s. They looked to be great, ferocious things. Ever since waking from death, Lazare had been too anxious of scaring anyone to open them properly, even to take a real look at them for himself. He had certainly never tried to fly. He’d had no idea if he could. Until now.

In the aftermath of a cunningly-planned murder, Synod Investigator Ajax prepares for the unenviable task of investigation.
#scifi #spaceopera #mystery #BookSky💙📚
In his office in the Synod Enforcer base, Ajax was considering his notes on the case. He had been thankful to escape the extreme weathers of Palus’s moons and return to a more comfortable environment. Here, with a spectacular view across the writhing jungle, where flying native animals soared through the rich atmosphere, he could think properly. A week’s adjustment to the new atmosphere had given him a chance to think, and with this case, he needed all the thought he could muster. He remembered his last exchange with Sedna and pinched his nose, wondering what he was getting himself into. Veld and St’oshi had not been overly enthusiastic, but they bowed to his judgment. And the Synod had not objected, so he assumed. But assumptions were dangerous, inside or outside his profession. He would need to carry it through now, but he still dreaded how Sedna’s involvement would turn out. A call broke in reverie. A call from his superior in the Synod, Bakura. Straightening up, Ajax answered the call. There was no preamble. “I want a summary of the situation from you. The suspects in particular. Our surveillance section’s been breathing down my ass about it.” Having a Feles superior had its downsides, though she boasted an incredible intellect. Ajax briefly described all he had just been thinking, then moved on to the suspects. “I have assembled the possible and the improbable in separate columns. I exclude Sedna and Hiakana, for obvious reasons.” There was a dark look in his superior’s eye. “We shall see about that. Let’s run through your list of possibles.” Ajax looked down at his private datapad, plugged it in, and began throwing up the displays he had created over the past week into their different columns and strata. Suspects, alibis, potential means, possible motives, opportunistic, all laid out for his superior to see. She glanced over, then gestured. “Run over them for me.”

It's Book Quote Wednesday! This week's word is "view," and here's a snippet from my cozy-spooky romantasy novella A Waltz of Sinister Import (the 3rd & last of The Supernatural Adventures of Lady & Lord Riven). Snap it up now:

books2read.com/waltzSinister

#romancelandia #bookqw
The cover of A Waltz of Sinister Import, by Stephanie Burgis, shows a pair of late nineteenth-century dancing slippers hanging over the title and a bat with outstretched wings underneath the author's name. Framing the cover's text are branches with golden leaves. Above, beside, and below that cover image is this snippet of text: When Margaret stepped into the first room and spotted the famously giant, gleaming bank of card indexes that catalogued the library’s unique inventory, she had to bite back a moan of pure delight. A librarian’s voice stopped her before she could take more than a single step towards those fascinating card indexes full of information. “No foreign visitors allowed, Madam, without written permission from the emperor.” Augh! Margaret could imagine no crueler form of torture than to view such an immense treasure hoard of knowledge...and be restrained from accessing any of it.

It's #BookQW and the word is VIEW. From my debut novel, Expiration Day, (YA/SF).
Tania has just lost her friend and mentor, Amanda, who inspired her to learn the bass guitar…
Nobody truly dies who shapes another person. Does that make sense, Mister Zog? So when the coffin lurched on its rollers and disappeared from our view, I didn’t cry anymore, but I held on tight to the little piece of Amanda in me, and whispered, “You’re safe,” and felt a tiny glow, from Amanda and from Mum.
