"The Wide, Carnivorous Sky and Other Monstrous Geographies" was one of @michaelshotter.com's favorite reads of 2025. In addition to being an accomplished author of speculative horror, John Langan is also worth a follow for interesting finds like the one below. 👇🩸📚💙

Not that he needs any such help at this point but @michaelshotter.com did read and enjoy one of Stephen King's books this year, so it only seems right to include "You Like It Darker," and him, in this "series" of posts. Have a look, #booksky! 👇🩸📚💙

Adrian Tchaikovsky is a prolific author of speculative fiction. Among other things, @michaelshotter.com read and enjoyed "One Day All This Will Be Yours" in 2025. Someday, after they both retire, Michael may catch up and read all his works! 🤞🤪👇🪐📚💙

Gareth L. Powell has many great sci-fi books to peruse, and more on the way. @michaelshotter.com read and enjoyed "Fleet of Knives" this year and is currently reading "Light of Impossible Stars" to complete the "Embers of War" trilogy. 👇🪐📚💙

I'm pleased to see Amazon committing to offering EPUB and PDF download options for purchased ebooks without DRM. I'm still reading the fine print and assessing the situation but my inclination is to have all my Kindle editions available when the feature goes live on Jan. 20. 🤔

Did you know that DS LaLonde has a new release focusing on horror and magical realism? Meanwhile, "A Bleak Remedy" was one of @michaelshotter.com's favorite reads of 2025 with its unique and detailed take on vampires. Check them out, #booksky! 👇🩸📚💙

S.J. Shank had a big, new dark-fantasy novel this year. For those interested in first sampling his shorter works of speculative fiction, @michaelshotter.com read and thoroughly enjoyed his collection, "Rare Specimen and Other Stories." 👇🩸📚🪐📚💙

"Never Leaving" was @michaelshotter.com's latest read from Elford Alley this year. If you enjoy quirky and original horror tales with a touch of humor and heart, his works are definitely worth exploring. See a bit of that in his post below. 👇🩸📚💙

"Black Cat Bones" is just the latest release from Brian Bowyer that @michaelshotter.com has read and enjoyed. If you're a fan of transgressive storytelling, extreme horror, or other dark realms of speculative fiction, his works are very worthy. 🩸📚💙

"Clownshoes" was @michaelshotter.com's latest read by Candace Nola this year. In addition to being a talented author of extreme horror and other forms of speculative fiction, she is the owner of uncomfortablydark.com, and a kindhearted soul. 👇🩸📚💙
