1179622 Ahh hello everyone, it's so lovely to meet you all! The main thing I'm getting from these intros is that you all have supremely more interesting lives than I do. No horde of pets for me to share, I'm afraid. :D

I run a book blog (https://pagesbelowvaultedsky.com/) that's undergoing heavy construction at the moment, so I've been on a bit of a hiatus. But I'll hopefully return soon! You can also find me @belowvaultedsky on Twitter and Instagram.

I found out about The Last Sun at the end of 2017. There was a list of 100 SFF books to look forward to in 2018 that Barnes and Nobles released, and under TLS it said something like, "Rune and his companion Brand." And my brain immediately lit up and went "Queer??? This HAS to be queer." For some reason, I never thought to ask K.D. directly if I was right - I just stewed on the possibility for several months until I managed to snag a review copy. Aaaand the rest is history.

I'm super excited to be reading along with the audiobook this time around. I didn't realize I had 6 audible credits floating around, and I've heard nothing but amazing things about Josh Hurley.

1179622 Hello everyone!

The Q&A for WEEK ONE (The Last Sun - Prologue to Cubic Dreams) is LIVE! K.D. will be answering questions from FEBRUARY 12th to 13th. Please try to limit your questions to things that are relevant to the chapters being discussed.

If you don't use Twitter, or just don't want to interact on Twitter, you can comment below with your questions and we will post them for you on the Twitter thread!

I haven't really done a managed read-along before (because reasons). I see the four Week 1 topics and had a general question. What exactly are they used for (other than being on topic): For ..."


Hey Meghan! Those are used for liveblogging, not Q&A! Basically for commenting with your thoughts on what you just read, asking discussion questions to other readers, stuff like that. We'll be making a separate topic folder for the Q&As during the weekend.

1179622 We're so very excited to have you join us for this marathon readalong!

The third book of The Tarot Sequence will be released in May, and the readalong is a part of our initiative to help promote the release, invite new readers, and have some festive New Atlantean fun. We'll be starting with The Last Sun in February and ending with The Great Atlantean Battle Royalchemy in April, reading through the designated chapters every week, having discussions, donning our tin foil crowns and spinning theories. There will be separate discussion threads for the chapters, so please check the topic headings to make sure you're commenting in the right thread.

It goes without saying that we expect everyone to conduct themselves with integrity. Racism, homophobia, and any other comments intending harm, hate, and disrespect will not be tolerated. Varying opinions are wonderful and bring depth and excitement to book discussions, but not when said opinion begins and ends at "Fun story but too many gays."

Our current reading schedule is as follows:

Feb 6 - 12: The Last Sun Prologue to Cubic Dreams
Feb 12 - 13: Q&A with KD (Twitter)
Feb 13 - 19: TLS Half House to The Manor
Feb 19 - 20: Q&A with KD

--------------

Q&A

Q&As with K.D. will happen every Saturday to Sunday on our Twitter account (@TTSPromo) where you can ask questions regarding the content we read for the week. Why Twitter? Because it's K.D's social media of choice and his previous Twitter Q&As have gone swimmingly.

Every Saturday, we'll add a link to the Twitter thread in the Q&A folder. If you don't use Twitter, you can comment with your questions under the link and a mod will ask them on your behalf and report back with the answers.

All the free extra content - Sunken Mall, the minis, etc - can be found on K.D's website: http://kd-edwards.com/extra-content/
