Tired of a dire reality? Run away into the fantasy world of “Prince Ewald the Brave” (2021) which is surely unlike our own!

  • a petty and uncareful executive figure makes increasingly questionable decisions while gradually weeding out any Generals or other advisors who would dare disagree with him

  • the most powerful chamber of government next to the executive openly debates legislation to remove this executive from power

  • someone who is actually in a position to solve this problem, but is too nice to have already solved it in the simplest and most brutal of ways, ultimately does what he must

Escape into this completely unfamiliar realm via your preferred online book retailer:

Or get it from an indie place:

I have just listed one of my back catalogue titles on #NetGalley - The Redemption of Jarek. Description: "After a humiliating defeat and banishment from the kingdom's capital, Jarek retreats to his tentatively loyal domain. He faces the scrutiny of commanders and villagers alike, and struggles to maintain their support while mending a dysfunctional former dukedom. When strangers arrive seeking amnesty, the struggle against their relentless pursuer could be Jarek's last."

Gelesen: The Regicide Report (2026) von @cstross@wandering.shop. Mit diesem Roman geht die Reihe The Laundry Files nach 25 Jahren zu Ende. Es war schön, Bob und Mo nochmal in Action zu sehen. #books #sff #sciencefiction #fantasy #thelaundryfiles #bookstodon

It is a popular mathematical experiment to try and work out just how fast Santa has to be to reach every house with a child in a single 24 hour period. The calculations always end up with a significant fraction of the speed of light. There then usually follow discussions about what the collateral damage from Santa's passing would be. And cargo limits, and so on. All of these are wrong, and ignore another end-of-year tradition. The portrayal of the ending year as an old man. Now that I've put these two traditions side-by-side, I think you can see what is really going on. It is possible for one man to visit every house in a night, with no shock waves or any of that silliness. But it comes at a cost. For that man, the night lasts many years, as he travels back in time after each visit. Even with time travel, he does not get much time to eat - so the snacks you leave out are essential to him surviving the night. But he only just survives. By the end of the night he will have aged over forty years. And then he hands the reigns of the time-travelling sleigh to a younger man, warning him of the cost. Someone always answers the call, despite the cost, because there is always someone willing to sacrifice everything to bring joy and light, even just a little, even if only for a moment. So leave the snacks, and, if you catch a glimpse of him, give him a bow of respect. He deserves it. #SFF #SF #Christmas #Santa #microfiction #microfic #tootfic #IAmWriting
