Masha du Toit is celebrating the release of their books on 7 new platforms by making them free until 31st July (except on Amazon because Amazon has other ideas). Sci-fi and fantasy, LGBTQ.

Spread the word :)

To start with, Masha recommends "The Babylon Eye", "We Broke the Moon" (YA drama), or "Ray and the Cat Thing" (quite light).

New to Lemmy, wasn't on Reddit so i don't know the etiquette or how multiple groups are commonly used.

I'd really like to let everyone know about something (temporarily free sci-fi & fantasy ebooks and their writer) but don't want to spam or break norms. Is one post per group acceptable, even if I post to several groups or is that frowned upon?

Hardcore Henry (2015) [ Action / Adventure / Sci-Fi ]

A cybernetically enhanced man attempts to save his wife from a maniacal wizard.

Yeah, the description makes it sound so played, but this is really one of the better movies I've seen in the last decade. It's mostly an action flick in a futuristic setting. Admittedly, there is a twist that can make the first watch a bit confusing, but it's part of its charm.

Lots of brutality and violence, a fair amount of cursing and nudity and pretty much non-stop action cement this in as an excellent 'dude' flick. It also features a fantastic cast that really bring their characters to life. It also has a great ending.

Hugo Award winner for 2022 best Novella.

Haven't read it myself yet, but other books by Becky Chambers are quite good.
