Ahh thank you! Soren did such an incredible job with both the exterior and interior art. It's all hand-drawn and the colors just do that shine thing in person :]

This was absolutely brutal and does not hold a single thing back. Very heavy, but oh so excellent.

The nipple play is so intense and hypnotic that I stayed up way too later reading this. And all of it just escalates from there. The dynamic between all three men works so well, and the sex is very hot and very character-driven. The mid-book genre twist works really well for me. Wherever the work starts and no matter the genre, I feel like I'm in the most def of hands, frolicking to a new adventure of kink and perversion. This was so fucking fun and drippy. 

Highly highly recommend if you're someone who enjoys the full spectrum of human sexual expression and incredible character work.

This is legit one of my favorite comics. Whenever I have to shave, I think of this comic and it makes the experience immediately more bearable.

Name Her Holy can be fairly accurately described as blessed lesbians in space. This book has so many things I love in fantasy: eldritch horrors, sword lesbians, cosmic magic systems, and quests to save the world. It also takes place among the stars, across several planets on the verge of apocalyptic calamity. Jude, a guard, is sworn to protect Kye, a chronically ill chosen one as together, they follow the patterns of stars blinking out of existence while several conspiracies unfold in the background.

I truly loved this space opera with its immersive world-building, slow-burn romance, and steady pace as Ennis puts queer spins on familiar fantasy tropes in a fresh setting among the stars.

My favorite part about this book was the magic system and the world-building. Fantasy tends to have a very singular focus or understanding of the primary religion in the fantasy world. In Name Her Holy, Ennis presents a world that has its codified, formal religion, the Vigil Order, but also folk beliefs that come in direct conflict when the Order sends its Herald to investigate the blight taking over the lands. These tensions feel organic and serve as the primary point of connection and conflict for our main characters. There’s a lot of thought also put into the way gender interacts with the world, especially in the context of legends and deciphering myths to save the world. As someone who enjoys queer readings into chosen one narratives, this book has many treats in store as we gain more insight into our main characters.

The alternating POVs between Jude and Kye do so much to ground the reader in understanding this corner of the galaxy. The depiction of more provincial beliefs versus theology is nuanced, and both influence Jude and Kye’s choices and motivations in ways that bring them closer together, but further apart from the places they hold dear. We learn a lot about what things are taken for granted and about truths that are anything but. I won’t go into specifically what the antagonist is, but I found myself glued to my eReader the more the plot unfolded.

This complexity is also delivered in elegant prose that makes the world come to life. I never found myself confused or questioning any aspect, from the environments to understanding the hierarchy that allegedly holds the galaxy together.

If you’re looking for a book featuring sword lesbians in space with a religious organization that doesn’t have its believers’ best interests at heart while waiting for any news about Tamsyn Muir’s Alecto: The Ninth, this is it.

this rips; evocative and melancholy, really nice piece of reflection

It would definitely be better in an enby and guy collection, though I will note that there is a woman and (a different enby) in another perspective. Sorry this answer is complex; it's a triple POV book where one enby gets with men, a lesbian gets with a different enby, and a bisexual whose relationships don't factor into her storyline in this first volume.

I appreciate the clarification! This is such a good set of collections, and thank you for doing this archiving work.

Hello!! Sasza Czarnolaski is nonbinary trans which much ambivalence towards his own masculinity and is into men. Both myself and the illustrator are trans :D

THIS MADE ME FEEL INSANE, THANK YOU SO MUCH

Gorgeous piece of mixed media that's also incredibly unsettling. Love feeling like a prey animal!!

This is by far the most challenging novella I read in 2024. Titmouse does zero hand-holding when it comes to the themes around autonomy, agency, loneliness, connection, and the responsibility humanity has towards the technology they developed and in their position. There is an eerie closeness in the prose from protagonist to protagonist, and the vignettes leave room for the reader to make their own consideration around how much is owed to the robots themselves. The illustrations are fantastic as always, but the bright colors and cheery faces add a necessary layer of horror to this science fiction.

I will be spinning it around my head for quite some time.

Thank you so much! It's equally frustrating because you can get the same book from a local retailer printed locally, but once it's shipped from the US (where I live), suddenly it's a problem. One of my friends is collecting information and as soon as I know things, so will folks here <3

I already rated it last year, but oooooomg is the rerelease a fucking triumph. So atmospheric, the voice is so good, the pacing is impeccable. The scholar is such a guy, and his trials and tribulations are so much fun to read. I can't wait for the next parts :]

This was a really cool, creepy piece of story, and I really enjoyed how elegant the writing style in contrast to the eerie and horrific visuals. Really well done.

This is such a fucking triumph of queer kink and queer horror. 

UPDATE: I had to raise prices for all shipping. My sincerest apologies for the inconvenience this may cause.

Hey hey! An update: currently working my way through fulfillment. It's a one-person show here, but I'm hoping to get them all out as soon as I can.

Omg!! Yeah, I just got the shipping notification from Ingram, so the books are currently in transit to me. 

If you want to or are able to get started on reading it in ebook, the files are also available to download off itch 🫶

Hello!! Thanks so much for pre-ordering - they are currently being printed and hopefully will be delivered next week so I can start shipping them out 🖤

Hello! Thank you so much for your message. I'm not planning on putting the book on Kindle Unlimited, and I truly will not take any offense to downloading it for free. I do have a ko-fi account if you would like to make a donation at a price more within your budget. 

That all being said, there will definitely be discounts via the Kindle store closer to when I'll be getting things ready for the release of Volume 2. 

Thank you SO MUCH <3

I want to get like an additional 3 dozen copies of this, print it out on edible paper, layer every page, and eat it like a gâteau mille-crêpes because holy shit is this art and prose tasty

This completely changed my brain chemistry in a different way than KNIVES did but oh boy am I glad to have read it

This completely pulped my mind in the best way. The words in composition and content coupled with the illustrations are masterful and I'm going to be revisiting this as often as my brain can handle

I went into this without having any sense of the characters, but wow this is so hot. So much erotic joy in such a compact package. The fact that Anne has wrinkles is everything. Loved it.
