A book cover for The Walls are Closing in on us by Joshua Trent Brown. A very dark green snake coiled up that appears to be floating above a black and white image of ravine. A horizontal rip splits the image just above the halfway point with a blurb by Austin Ross, author of Gloria Patri. The quote says “…a book that examines not only the soul of a man but—perhaps—the soul of a nation.”
Got this today! The Walls are Closing in on us by @joshuatrentbrown.com! This is such a beautiful cover. Done by @johnchrostek.com beautifully done, man! Can’t wait to read it
"Wendy's recounting of the experiences of the Darling children is far darker & sinister than the story we are all familiar with. The writing is excellent and creates an extremely suspenseful atmosphere...set against the backdrop of the devastation of war."

"If you enjoy Gothic settings with supernatural mysteries and a main character with a hidden past and 'proper' ghosties you have to pick up this book. Evocative, mesmerising, & mysterious!" Fab review from lovely indie bookshop in Stonehaven But n' Ben Books - now in stock! 🏴 @lunapress.bsky.social
They sold AI as a cheat for people with ideas to steal the hard work from others. It’s both satisfying and terrifyingly ironic that the only people still buying into are so deficient they have to steal even a crumb of *check notes* …thinking?
Phenomenal movie
