Happy to join your campaign for Alastair to write more sci-fi! I remember wanting a sequel to Wildspark by Vashti Hardy because I really liked the world she had built. #SundayMorningBookChat

He rustled through a sturdy rucksack, digging past dried rations and crumpled missives, nudging aside spare bandages and sentimental gifts, and found nestled atop a treasured sketchbook the small wooden container he'd come to deliver. Cœur raised her head lazily on Zhyk's approach. Her golden eyes gleamed in the low luminescence of the fire, regarding him passively as if she had been waiting for the day he'd return. She dipped her muzzle slightly as he held out a palm, leaning forward to bunt her snout against his fingertips in greeting. "She's been restless since you left."

Eye-Fly Part Two continues the strange, funny, steampunk story-song battle between Eye-Fly and McFly.

With mathematical precision, Eye-Fly observes the target and finds his first solution: a warning sound.

Wildspark by Vashti Hardy, Utterly Dark and the Face of the Deep by Philip Reeve, Birdsong by Katya Balen, Leeva at Last by Sara Pennypacker, Check Mates by Stewart Foster, No Man’s Land by Joanna Nadin. I’ll probably think of more later!

October brought rereads of 2 old favourites as well as lots of new titles and included some wonderful nonfiction and poetry. Reviews still to come for a few of these but they are coming!
Another huge pile of children’s books. Cover of Wildspark by Vashti Hardy.

Orion Lost’s a brilliant story - would happily read a Book 2 to that. Wildspark by Vashti Hardy definitely needs a sequel and I know there are many others who’d agree with that, Tom! x

A little fond about the ship tag wildspark already. I like how it conveys a sense of freedom, the potential of beginnings, and more or less encompasses a bit of both characters.

(I'm also not immune to "brave little spark" references despite Z's non-WoL aspect a lot of the time.)

"…I already accepted the drink. You've no need to keep heaping on praise." "And what if I wanted to?" The question was asked so smoothly and blithely that Zhyk almost thought he misheard it. A mouthful of mead ended up down the wrong hatch, causing him to cough and sputter, cheeks warming— —due to the mead, of course— —until he'd gotten under control enough to shoot J'yhuh a disgruntled glare.

His hands are sticky from collecting full buckets of maple sap in the cool spring morning, exchanged for empty pails. The sun's burgeoning warmth dances across Zhyk's face as he rests near the provided campfire, clutching a mug of hot spiced cider, teeth chattering. J'yhuh chuckles beside him, a mug of his own between similarly sticky palms. Work, coin, and company shared—why not warmth as well? He leans his shoulder into Zhyk's, their breath clouding the space before them in tandem, quiet comfortable conversation as they watch the guild inventory their work. Zhyk smiles softly, tail curling around J'yhuh's.

Aether spills into view, a crystallization of energy. A flashover of material unseen to most, soulspun magicks erupting in a contained torrent of heat, vivid azure flames igniting in the palm of his hand. The shape of scythe forms in smoke and flame—as Zhyk darts forward, the weapon becomes as tangible and weighted as any other, crashing into a hastily lifted shield. Sparks fly between them as metal screeches against metal. The raging fire clings to the curved edge of the scythe's blade, each strike producing a flare of heat. Yet when he manages to snag the tip into his opponent's armor the blaze dims, flickering low like a candle. The scorching heat, too, diminishes. "Kind of you," the blonde miqo'te quips and brandishes his shield, cracking hard against the scythe to dislodge it.

I left my physical copy of this in my last school but had a yearning to reread it so am cheating slightly by rereading on my Kindle.

"Talk to me, handler. Don't up and run." J'yhuh's expression was grim, focused, trying to read past the roiling anger in Zhyk's body language. He knew he should allow Zhyk to leave, let the man cool his head, but something else demanded he confront the issue here. Now. Before it grew to be something beyond them. Before he might not see the other miqo'te again. "Let go," Zhyk warned, low and quiet. "Not until I know you're going to talk." A dark violet tail whipped through the air; he was never good at hiding his emotions. "Let. Go." "…No."

I was in a slump with a run of morose adult books so it was discovering the quality of MG fiction. I started with these four magical books and I haven’t looked back since! I would go with something that involves me emotionally like The Dawn of Adonis or The Wrong Shoes.
