Cover of Grace & Favour. Blue and brass-yellow colours predominant. The title is in fancy font at the top, and there's what looks like a photo portrait in an ornate frame, of two men, one in a top hat, one holding a pocket watch, and a large white dog. In the background of the photo (actually a daguerreotype, but anachronistically in colour), there is the faint impression of a woman, transparent...you could say, almost ghostly...

Mood board for Grace & Favour. Has a painting by Turner (a watercolour of Hampton Court Palace from across the river), a daguerreotype in a case, a ghost postcard, a Scots phrasebook, and a big picture of Max, a Maremma livestock guard dog, big, white and fluffy.

Info graphic for Little Wolf and the Witch. It's Feilan (Little Wolf, the Vaer) vs the Witch (Remy, the love interest). First phrase is Feilan; second phrase is Remy.

Isn't a barbarian, won't hunt monsters. / Isn't a witch, just a redhead.

Has friend with benefits, not (very) interested in you, thanks / And yet, have you noticed how naked I am?

What do you mean, we're married now? / Sorry, I don't make the rules...darling.

I'm still not fighting a monster for you, jolterhead. / But a poor vulnerable naif needs your help.

Fine, I'll fight the human monster for you. / Why are you glaring at my uncle like that?

Domesticated Magic info graphic, Mateo vs Jonas. First phrase is Mateo, second is Jonas.

Is a Taurasi, they've lost their homeland. / Used to be pirate, he's lost his ship.

The grumpy one - or he is merely stern and controlling? / The sunshiney one - really a proto-Stoic with so much forebearance.

Doesn't know what hit him - Jonas has weaponised charm. / Doesn't know what hit him - Mateo doesn't even realise he's armed.

And now there's murder? Can his day get worse? / Yes.

It's Saturday 1st November here in the UK, which means it's FediBookFair!

This weekend, we invite authors and publishers to write about their books, research, and related topics, with the #FediBookFair hashtag.

If that sounds interesting to you, please follow the hashtag and boost this so that more people can join us.

If it doesn't sound fun, please mute the hashtag - we have no interest in filling your timeline with stuff you're not interested in. You can find out how to do that here: https://fedi.tips/filtering-your-timeline-to-hide-posts-on-mastodon/
