    Ebook and paperback: books2read.com/TheNextHorizon

    Amelia and The Book of Newts are in conflict. She wants to explore her feelings. It wants to explore space, taking back the gift for mathematics and piloting it gave her. She’s left unable to plot a direct course home. She’s desperate to see the man she loves, lest she lose him forever and The Book is in her way…

    (Left) The cover of The Next Horizon, by Owen Tyme.

The black silhouette of a man and woman embracing.  They stand atop the dark side of a planet or moon in space, which has a slim crescent along the right side.  The background is the stars of space, but some have been highlighted with a heart shape that surrounds the couple.  Everything is in shades of blue.

(Right) Deep space, displaying the edge of an orange and blue gaseous cloud from a nebula, while most of the stars appear golden in color.  Floating in space is a square, red leather book with the image of a newt stamped on the cover.  Over the top of everything is the following text:

“You can back down and cooperate, right now, or Marta will hit you so hard, you should reach a tenth the speed of light…”

“No one will ever find you again, but even if someone does, there’s no way they’ll have the capacity to safely slow you down, before you’re gone to them!”

      Game of Thrones favourite "very defensive" about divisive final season: "I feel very protective of it still"

      <p>Game of Thrones star Kit Harington has defended the final season of the show.</p><p><a href="https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/fantasy/game-of-thrones-how-watch/">The fantasy drama series</a>, which was based on the George RR Martin book series, concluded in 2019 with <a href="https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/fantasy/game-of-thrones-s8/">season 8</a>, and prompted some backlash, with many fans claiming that numerous character arcs and storylines were left unresolved.</p><p>But during an appearance at Motor City Comic Con in Michigan over the weekend, Harington – who played Jon Snow for all eight seasons – said he feels “very protective” of the final season.</p><p>“The reason is, cause I mean, I guess you all saw it from the outside, whereas I saw it from the inside. So I knew, I know how much care and how much love and how much work and how much life went into making it, and the conversations that would have happened and the arguments around the table about what way to go, and what thing to do," he explained.</p><p>He added: “It’s not a small process. It’s an incredibly complex and lengthy and intricate process. And I feel that the best people to be able to do that were the people who gave us the first seven seasons, that brought it to TV, that brought George’s thing and brought it to TV."</p><p>He continued: “And so my feeling about it is, there may have been mistakes, as we can all decide whether we liked it or not, and what we liked about it, what we didn’t. But there’s no doubt in my head that what they did was the right thing because they’re the people who brought it to us. And I kind of stand by that. </p><p>"Like, I feel very defensive of it as a show and as a season. And I think I always will, actually.”</p>

      Cover art by Geoff Taylor shows two swordsmen standing back to back as enemies approach. 
Extract: I focused on the second boat, a round-bellied coastal craft with triangular sails plump and complacent when it should have been fighting for its life in those surging seas. Heedless of raging swells fighting to ram it on to the rocks, it was sweeping serenely towards the harbour.
	‘Oh.’ Casuel’s tone was heavy with displeasure.
	‘Magic?’ I hardly needed mystical communion with the elements to realise that, when I could see the ship defying all sense and logic.
	‘An advanced practitioner,’ Casuel confirmed with glum envy.
	I looked for some telltale of magic, a crackle of blue light or a ball of unearthly radiance clinging to the masthead. Deep-water sailors talk of such things, calling it the Eye of Dastennin. There was nothing to see; perhaps this unknown wizard considered it enough to set the ship riding high in the water, untouched by the storm. 
	I looked back to the first vessel, now heeling dangerously. It had moved a full length or more closer to the seething rocks, its plight ever more perilous. As we watched, helpless, a great wave plunged over the deck, the waist of the ship vanishing completely, deck castles alone resisting the insatiable seas. We held ourselves motionless until the ship struggled up to ride the surface once more. But now it had a dangerous list; cargo must have shifted in the hold, and that had been the death of many a crew.
	‘They’re going to help.’
