Thank you so much! So glad you like the name, the moment I thought of it I was like "Yes. Yes that is it." So happy you're excited to read my books, and I hope I didn't over-sell it mentioning my inspirations! I love those books too and they inspired me greatly (the Shrike was a big inspiration for Nhymn, and Dune inspired me to create the world of Kamaria, although I didn't go full desert. The philosophy of an alien world and what makes adapting to it interesting and dangerous.) I hope you enjoy both those book as well as all the others in this fantastic video!

Thank you TA Bruno!! The Shrike is one of the most ominous and awe striking beasts in all of science fiction IMO! So I'm excited to see this inspiration of yours 🙌

Tons of amazing reads on this list. The covers of all of these books look phenomenal! You can really tell how much care and effort each one took to give their book the best shot at being noticed.

That intro!!! I was laughing so hard at that, thank you! Regarding the books, you have some epic ones here! I'm actually hoping to read Silva's novella as soon as I finish my current book; the magic system sounds different and compelling. I haven't heard about Sunset Sovereign at all, but the idea of a cozy dragon story is definitively going to be cozy! I've been meaning to get into the Malitu book (by Dulin) but honestly my TBR can't handle anything else. And you already made me purchase (convinced me, more accurately) to get both Death Stranding books (which are still lost in the post). So many awesome books for this year! Also, thank you so much for all the help you give the indie community! Much appreciated!

Would like to shout out Vaughn Roycroft’s «Bold Ascension» (sequel to «The Severing Son» in «The Sundered Nation»-Trilogy), Fantasy inspired by the Historic Gothic Tribes of the Fall of the Western Roman Empire (think of the nation of Rohan from «Lord of the Rings»)!

Some proper stunners in here, like those “The Legacy of Boulom” pair 😱 Lots and lots of unfamiliar titles in here, I wish I could read them all 😘 “The Martian Incident” caught my ear too… 🤔 When is my next haul coming? 🧐

@@CD287- The first recommendation is completely genuine. The Martian Incident by Ryan Patrick is the perfect intro to military science fiction. He takes you through a singular 'incident' in such a way that you can't stop turning pages. You follow the journey of the protagonist as he traverses through an extreme situation in an unknown world with a set of tools that allows him to navigate to the best of his abilities. I finished the second half of the book in a single sitting. The second recommendation is slightly in jest, it's my book, Lost Souls. It's a multi-pov scifi, that deals with overcoming loss, finding purpose, and asks the question 'what would you do to build the reality you wanted to live in?' I hope you'll check it out. Cheers

@@CD287- I 2nd the recommendation of Lost Souls. I just finished the book about 2 days ago and it was simply amazing. One of my top reads in 2023...actually my last read in 2023. You are a fan of existential books, this is a no brainier and a "must read" in my opinion :)
