The cover of the book.

Book 47 is "Diaspora" by Greg Egan.

Edit: finished 15th July.

The cover of the book.

It is hard to say whether this is a smear of jam through breadcrumbs or a comet through asteroids but it feels like it should be the latter, given the subject material.

Book 49 is "Judas Unchained" by Peter F. Hamilton, second in the Commonwealth Saga.

Edit: finished 6th August.

#CurrentlyReading #Bookstodon #PeterFHamilton #CommonwealthSaga #JudasUnchained

The cover of the book.

An insectoid-looking organic spacecraft is flying in front of a much larger "traditional" spaceship that is larger than the image and disappears far out of shot. In the background there is a red sun.

Book 50 of 2025 is "Return of the Ancients", part of the British Library's Tales of the Weird series and edited by Katy Soar.

Edit: finished 12th August.

#CurrentlyReading #Bookstodon #KatySoar #BritishLibrary #TalesOfTheWeird #ReturnOfTheAncients

The cover of the book. 

The image is all in yellow on a black background. A giant woman in a toga is raising her hands, standing above a burning castle-like building with telegraph posts. Half a dozen small people are silhouetted against the flames, while large doves fly around the woman. Her hair flies off in all directions, becoming constellations amid the stars of the night sky overhead.
