“The Words of Kings and Prophets”, by Shauna Lawless

I read this book from NetGalley in exchange for a fair and honest review RELEASE DATE - September 14th, 2023 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The second book of the “Gael Song” series by Shauna Lawless picks the story right after the events of the first book. We now find that our main narrators (for there are more in this book, but not many more) Fódla and Gormflaith, are now settled in the same settlement. We see the sadness and the anger each of them keep in their hearts and how they conduct themselves as polar opposites in the present situation. The goodbyes to friends and relatives, the necessity of accepting the changes that are already taking place, the new situation between the Irish, and the Vikings, and the Dubliners and the conflicts that are still very subtle at the Tuatha Dé Danann. In a few words, this book is about powerful power-hungry people whose power is never enough, men thinking themselves as puppeteers when in fact they are the puppets.

“The Words of Kings and Prophets” slows down the pace of the story and goes into a darker place. We haven’t reached bottom yet and we need to go there before coming up again. This book is gloomier when Fódla takes the role of the storyteller, but when it’s Gormflaith’s turn to pick up the narration we can see red as her hatred, her arrogance, and the way she refuses to see her pride hurt. Gormflaith is the most selfish woman in this kingdom of Brian Boru and in her selfishness he makes many mistakes that she won’t acknowledge, for she is smart and resourceful but less intelligent than she thinks she is. For her part Fódla is prideful too but in a different way, she sees things like the ‘fae’ she is, and isn’t used to the ways of the humans, but she’s not unwilling to learn, and to bend her pride to the new customs and ways she learns on her journey.

As I said, in this book we have less action so to speak, less battles, and wars and more stories. Although there is an environment of violence that can almost be touched, smelled. The writing becomes more intimate, less self-contained and as beautiful and engaging as in “The Children of Gods and Fighting Men”. The prose is such a dream that it’s even hypnotic. Shauna Lawless has the power to make the reader dance to her tune and that music is so magical that said reader will be hopeless, dancing forever to the tin whistle and the bodhrán of the Irish of old, and the rage and joy of the Viking warriors.

The story is based on historical events, but only slightly, only as the setting… the rest is mythology, fantasy, and human behaviour, and development, growth. That’s undeniable that the difference between the previous book and this one is, in one word, growth. Lastly, I’d like to point out that Lawless manages to include social talk and the different potential sources to a problem every step of the way. Pay attention to Lucrecia and the slave dilemma, then extrapolate it to any and every social issue you can think of. You will realize that it works the same.

The Artist Cassie Thornton of the Feminist Economics Department, discusses "The Hologram", a mythoreal collective peer-to-peer health project. "The Hologram", based on the understanding that all our crises are connected and everyone is a little sick, is a viral four-person health monitoring and diagnostic system practiced from couches all over the world.

Three non-expert participants create a three-dimensional “hologram” of a fourth participant’s physical, psychological and social health, and each becomes, in turn, the focus of three other people’s care in an expanding network.

This health distribution system is based on the experimental care models developed in the Social Solidarity Clinics in Greece during the height of the financial and migration crisis. The result is the construction of a robust network of multi-dimensional health, collectively oriented social practices, and trust that can outlive racial capitalism.

This project is currently incubating at Furtherfield Gallery in London, with support and collaboration with Pirate Care. An upcoming book about the project will be available from Pluto Press.

Cassie Thornton is an artist and activist who creates a “safe space” for the unknown, for disobedience and for unanticipated collectivity. She uses social practices including institutional critique, insurgent architecture, and “healing modalities” like hypnosis and yoga to find soft spots in the hard surfaces of capitalist life.

Thanos’ corner has grew! I went to the local comic convention and return home with someThanos and Marvel things :)

Gamora’s Funko is suuuper cute! <3

Thanos’ bust looks like shit in the photos, but I assure you it is wonderful! It was made by a local shop with their 3D printer. The material is beautiful, looking blue or purple depending on the light. And the details are incredibly well made, it is the more accurate  figure I have seen to the moment.

(yeah, in the photos it seems awful).

At the same time I got this suuuuper Infinity Gauntlet lamp:

And i got some more things, including another bust of Thanos wich is going to be a b-day present and will remain in its box until that day XD

(btw I made the little Dr. Strange)

But probably the most important thing is that Esad Ribic was invited to the convention and I got some of myThor issues from his period signed :D
