World Economic Forum at Davos, 65 heads of government walk into an ultra-private, not even translators present, locked door meeting.
An hour later 64 walk out.
This week I read "Daughter of the Empire" by Raymond E Feist and Janny Wurts. It's a political fantasy from 1987. Overall, I found it surprisingly good.
Surprisingly because I really didn't like Feist's "Magician" - I found it trope ridden and dull.

Do you ever have that fantasy where the Democrats score such an overwhelming victory in the upcoming that on November 6th, Donald Trump just shows up and turns himself in to the nearest Federal prison?
No? Okay, so just me then.
Book Review:
#anarchist #politicalfantasy
Finished Margaret Killjoy's "A Country of Ghosts" published by the #AKpress Black Dawn Imprint. It read as any fantasy with a focus on character development and world building. I appreciated the imagined #anarchistgovernance model and how characters made decisions and organized roles without relying on titles or professions. It was #antinationalist and focused on collectives of hyper local communities. Also it was so gay 🌈
