Every piece of Sun Eater art gets me so freaking hyped! Peng Lu is crushing it! Also I can't think of a better studio to do an adaptation of Piranesi than Laika. A match made in heaven.

Curious Kings does incredible editions, outrageously expensive; definitely out of my league but worth ogling at! Sun Eater's art has been so far stunning! I didn't know Mike Shel, but now I definitely need to check his books, that edition is gorgeous and it sounds very interesting! Thanks for sharing, Petrik!

Thank you so much, Livia! That's my thoughts on Curious King, too. They are expensive, and I've been blessed enough to receive 2 of them in exchange for a review, but even if I don't get them I will still be happy with their existence. It's rare to see someone go all the way toward producing a beautiful book that can last a lifetime.

Legend looks terrific 😮

After clicking on your Amazon link you gave for The Failures, under "Customers who bought this item also bought" section I saw a new book of his called The Bright Sword which I was totally unaware of. Coming out July 16th. Very excited for that as well 🙂

i though i saw somewhere that omniscient reader's viewpoint was getting a live action? idk if it's confirmed or anything, but anime adaptation would be better imo (not 100% on this tho since i didn't watch solo leveling and have no basis on whether manhwa/korean webnovel to anime is good). the first part of ORV would be doable as a live action but i don't know about the latter parts...
