Mary Robinette has finished up recording the audio for Lesbians in Space: Where No Man Has Gone Before! There's one final recording session planned on June 11th to finish up the extra short story from Heather Tracy, and soon after we'll be ready to distribute it to all you lovely people. My hope is to have it to you by the end of June.
Space Wizard Year 5 is already funded, and we're working hard toward our first stretch goal, which is to get a cover for the upcoming Quirk & Moth omnibus, which will collect the first three books and two short stories, one of which has not yet been published!
Here's a list of all the books in the campaign:
Lucianus, by C.J. Beshara- An ancient wizard, reincarnated into a new body, learns how the world has changed since his catastrophic death, and why his new traveling companion is interested in him!
Aliens in New Florida, by Carmen Loup, author of the Audacity Omnibus (and in the same universe) - A road trip across post-apocalyptic Florida with prophesy, an attractive reptilian alien, psychedelics, omniscient aliens (and humans), and a quest for the fabled Kingdom!
Gunmaker, by Chris Gerrib, in the same universe as his previous Space Wizard book One of Our Spaceships is Missing - A murder by gunshot on the indentured mining colony of Eros, a place where guns are not allowed, sparks an investigation into the corruption of the colony owners!
Romance and the Gentle Art of Rocket Racing, by Rena Rocford, author of the recently released Mothball Magic - A rocket-racing rogue must help her secret half-brother, the king of his colony, to woo the woman of his dreams, through silk, intrigue, and fast ships!
Pressure Magic - book 3 of William C. Tracy's Shifting Lands fantasy series. Silluka has survived the invasion of Chimor, but she, her brother Ichu, her girlfriend Cosquella, and Lugopo, the eldritch octopus, find themselves stuck on a strange island with a master craftsman!
Promise of Manifest, by Alex Kingsley - Find out what happens in the conclusion of The Bastion Cycle, in a world of post apocalyptic giant crabs and human scavengers! This is the third book, following Empress of Dust (the 2025 Small Spec Book award winner for Science Fiction)and Relic of Haven!
Queen and Obsidian, by J.S. Fields, a duology of science fiction space opera stories. It begins with Queen, where an intersex woman is trapped on a barely hospitable planet of women, only to learn their meager living area is further threatened. This is followed up by Obsidian, which follows the events of the first book!
And if you got some Tea With Books in the audiobook campaign, we've added two more flavors:
Fire tea pairing: This is a 1/2 oz canister of looseleaf, decaf, cinnamon-flavored Rooibos tea. Good for 4-5 servings or one full teapot. The tin comes with instructions on how to prepare both hot and iced versions! Goes with the novel Mothball Magic by Rena Rocford!
Ice tea pairing: This is a 1/2 oz canister of looseleaf, caffeinated, apple-flavored green tea. Good for 4-5 servings or one full teapot. The tin comes with instructions on how to prepare both hot and iced versions! Goes with the novel Mothball Magic by Rena Rocford!
To top it off, this campaign is running in The Book Bazaar Summer Bonanza, with 11 new projects, brought to you by indie creators. If you back 5 of the campaigns or more, you get a sticker sheet with all the covers!
