The second of the requested Booktoks on Alexander the Great fiction, this time covering Melissa Scott's A Choice of Destinies, Jo Graham's Stealing fire, and Scott Oden's Memnon. (With honorable mention of another book by each.)

The three covers I made for Jo Graham's The Calpurnian Wars series, published by Candlemark & Gleam. It's been an honour and a joy to work on these and bring Jo's characters to life.

The previous posts reminded me to repost this quote from one of the post-SGA books 😆

I was very amused to find out this conversation made it into an official Stargate: Atlantis tie-in book (written by Jo Graham) 😆

Jo Graham's A Blackened Mirror

A brief review of Jo Graham's A Blackened Mirror:

Crossposted from Patreon and Substack. Jo Graham, A Blackened Mirror. Cambridge MA: Candlemark & Gleam. 2023. Cover art for A Blackened Mirror Blackwell’s affiliate link. I’ve really enjoyed Graham’s space opera, Sounding Dark and Warlady. A Blackened Mirror is historical fantasy with a romantic turn, set in Rome in 1489 and told from the point of view of the adolescent Giulia Farnese: later…

JO: There's a moment when you are all together and Damon breaks down crying, how was that for you? GRAHAM: Funny! No, no, it wasn't funny, I was very concerned because both of us had very heavy times, and you know, and I just got to Devon, and it's the first playback of him having got all his vocals together. And it's all very well, you know, writing words down in the back of a taxi or whatever, thinking "yeah that'll work" and sing it, but it's a really weird thing with lyrics when you suddenly breathe life into them, singing them into a microphone and having them play back to you, it gains this tremendous power. I completely understand why he felt uncomfortable or emotional. JO: Damon is very complex, you never know what Damon you're gonna get… GRAHAM: It's always the same one to me. JO: Is it? Which is…? GRAHAM: Which is... Hang on a minute. JO: What is he to you? GRAHAM: He is always very caring, very generous, mischievous. And I suppose within that mischievous is where he's talking about. JO: He gets angry a couple of times… GRAHAM: We all had a good paddy. I love when Damon just lets it go, that's probably needed for him, because it was stressful, and some of my funniest memories are from Damon just losing it, having a massive tantrum. He comes out of it pretty quick, but at the time, the intensity of it… is just... you can't do much more than just laugh at it. We are beyond offending each other, that's the thing about Damon, he is pretty unoffendable, and me too.

if there is one thing I really want to thank Chris Chibnall for it is the companion support group

seriously, if the BBC wants to film a series of short webisodes featuring whichever former companions that are willing to come back,I would happily watch all of them

So, for those who wanted a booktok on some Alexander fiction, here's one that features the work of Judith Tarr, primarily, although I also mention David Gemmell (setting Judy's book(s) against his duology), as well as Jo Graham and Harry Turtledove in passing. I chose Judy to begin as she's written more than one book on Alexander (including one on Olympias), and she's good at incorporating ancient views on magic and myth appropriately into her stories. Most of these also have some (het) romance, although I didn't say a lot about that. In Lord of the Two Lands (and Queen of the Amazons) she treats Hephaistion well, and he is shown as ATG's lover.

I'll do some more, largely on books I liked, to highlight them, as well as on some unusual (and old) ones I have in my collection. As I say in the video, I've been collecting ATG fiction for a very long time now (since the late 80s, in fact).
