You can't beat a good legal thriller with a former con man for a lawyer. The Eddie Flynn books are so good! Witness 8 by @stevecavanagh.bsky.social is a page-turner with twists that keep on coming. Check out the review: bit.ly/42fiTWg #catsofbluesky @atriabooks.bsky.social

A new edition of The Vampire Tapestry by Suzy McKee Charnas came out this week. This is a sleek, literary take on the vampire novel. Stellar writing and as impactful today as when it first came out nearly 50 years ago. #booksky #catsofBluesky @torbooks.bsky.social

I'm always eager to read fiction in translation, particularly set in less common places. Hunkeler's Secret by Jansjorg Schneider is part of the Inspector Hunkeler series set in WWII-era Switzerland. This looks like an excellent mystery! #BookSky #CatsofBluesky @bitterlemonpress.bsky.social

I know @bookreviewskill.bsky.social has great taste in books because I follow his reviews. I'm super excited to read his debut fantasy, Anji Kills a King. Anji is on the run with a bounty on her head, trailed by fabled mercenaries. This looks excellent! #BookSky #CatsofBluesky @torbooks.bsky.social

I love the way that @ddalglish.com builds fantasy worlds, particularly the relationship between gods, or near gods, and mortals. The Radiant King is the 1st book in the Astral Kingdoms series and it looks amazing! I am so ready to dive into this world! #BookSky #CatsofBluesky @orbitbooks.bsky.social

Nobody combines SF and horror better than @davidwellington.bsky.social . Revenant X is the second book in the Red Space trilogy that began with Paradise 1. That book scared my socks off and I can't wait to dive into this book! #BookSky #CatsofBluesky @orbitbooks.bsky.social

It only takes one book from @stevecavanagh.bsky.social to make you a fan for life. Diabolical, twisty thrillers that you can't put down! Kill For Me Kill For You has been on my wishlist for a while and I've finally got my hands on a copy. Can't wait to read this one! #BookSky #CatsofBluesky

This book looked just too good to pass up. #LongLiveEvil by @sarahreesbrennan.bsky.social looks like so much fun.

This is a book I've had my eye on for quite a while! 2034 by Elliot Ackerman and Admiral James Stavridis sounds like exactly the type of near-future military thriller I love. Gives me Red Storm Rising (Tom Clancy) vibes. Hoping to squeeze it in before their new book, 2054, comes out in March!

Some new ARCs! Extinction by Douglas Preston and Point Zero by Seicho Matsumoto, translated by Louise Heal Kawai. Preston is perfect for operating in that Michael Crichton zone of #thriller/science run amok and this looks awesome! I love Japanese mysteries too.
