Attention ancient history nerds and fans of really weird and unusual fantasy books, THE WISDOM OF EMPERORS kickstarter campaign just launched!
Hello, btw, I'm Alexandra Rowland, the author of A TASTE OF GOLD AND IRON, RUNNING CLOSE TO THE WIND, YIELD UNDER GREAT PERSUASION, and several other books. This is my new one!!
Inspired by the story of the Ancient Roman emperor Hadrian and his lover Antinous, THE WISDOM OF EMPERORS is a second-world adult fantasy novel written in the style of a fictional academic text. It documents the translation and study of a world-changing artifact discovered in an archaeological dig: a manuscript which provides the clues to finally unravel one of the most perplexing mysteries in all of ancient history.
If this sounds like your jam, go back it on kickstarter! If you're not sure whether it is your jam, the merch reveal updates on the campaign include excerpts from the book so you can get a flavor for it -- the ENTIRE Foreword to the book is on there!
I do not have a publisher to help with a marketing and publicity budget, so this book's success really depends on grassroots support from readers -- if you can spare a signal boost, that'd be amazing.
I'M GONNA GO WALK INTO THE SEA NOW AND BECOME ONE WITH THE MOLLUSCS, but before i do, here is the full summary of the book:
SUMMARY:
An ancient emperor who, along with his entire army, vanished from the historical record for ten years, as if into thin air. A long-suffering scribe, dragged along on a quest that was doomed from the start, furiously scrawling his thoughts in a manuscript that will be lost for millennia. An enslaved young man, as beautiful as a marble statue, breaking his chains and flying to freedom. And a patient, steadfast scholar, dauntlessly seeking the answer to a mystery that has plagued historians for two thousand years.
The great tragedy of studying history is that there is so much we will never know. But a recent archaeological excavation has discovered an ancient manuscript, allegedly the journal kept by one of Emperor Cabian’s scribes during the years of his mysterious disappearance. Though most historians initially dismissed it as a hoax or a forgery, Amatio Orlanti took on the challenge—not only proving the authenticity of the manuscript, but translating it, uncovering the most jaw-dropping corroborating sources and, at last, presenting these astonishing revelations to the world: The truth of Cabian’s ill-fated journey, the twin poisons of imperialist violence and desperate, misguided love that drove him relentlessly onwards, and the ultimate fate of his lost beloved, the legendary beauty Anaticula. This new edition of Orlanti’s dissertation, with its academic commentaries and explanatory footnotes now revised for the general public, offers a glimpse of one of the most famous figures of Ancient Lausa—and casts a light on the rot and depravity lying behind the empire’s outward magnificence.
Miracles in history and archaeology just don’t happen… except when they do.

(Signal boosts very much appreciated!)
I will also say in the vein of Mayaposting, I don't at all begrudge her attitude to Vaelus' unprovoked line of questioning at the start. Tangentially, however, it is interesting how Vaelus, who spends her entire life grieving and mourning something as vast as a lost world, finds it so difficult to trust the grief of mortals who aren't actively emotionally bleeding out in front of her.
She was right there when Aranessa was attacked, but still suspected her of orchestrating it. She was right there with Julien, as she herself states, but refuses to wholeheartedly accord sincerity to Maya's grief. Simultaneously, she found kinship with Thaisha in a shared moment of mental connection about Alogar and Maywyn but that came after they both have a heart forward conversation where Vaelus did not feel that her own grief was being dismissed. She is often the first to consider Occtis and offer him a great deal of sympathy. She even grants a moment of understanding to Hannan, pained as it is.
It's a curious thing, and I wonder if it brought on by some inherent distrust in human centres of power, or lingering prejudice about the transience of their losses, or, as I find most likely, a subconscious, almost petulant tendency to dismiss the grief of those who don't open up to her specifically and accord sufficient weight to Vaelus' own mourning.
Today in niche genres of joke that I can never get enough of and will probably still be secretly thinking about four years later

Decades before the New York City subway cars were lined with advertisements for niche dating apps, personal injury lawyers, prescription weight loss medicines, and alternative internet browsers, the interiors of many of the city’s trains were adorned with editions of the two-toned mock newspaper known as The Subway Sun. Primarily produced between 1936 and 1965 under the artistic direction of late cartoonists Fred Cooper and Amelia Opdyke Jones, the imitation periodical campaign by the Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) fulfilled a variety of purposes in the subway system for over five decades. It encouraged polite passenger etiquette, but also promoted local attractions as a way to entice New Yorkers to use public transit — from the Metropolitan Museum of Art to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden.

is it good if this is the best praise you could have used for your movie commercial

im obsessed with the world of donkey kong, where the "barrel" is an abstracted, functionless object that seems to just manifest in the wild
I'll admit, Azune purposefully changing his features to more resemble a mix of Harondus and his wife is an insane move, and I am HERE! FOR! IT! Nobody is doing it like him! No one is on his fucking level! The nobles are all trying to play the Game of Thrones, and Azune is playing circles around them. He is the star! He is the moment! He is smearing his sister's blood across his face to feel closer to her!
