The End

I have some news that is both exciting and a little sad: I am going to stop posting new content to Tungsten Hippo. The website will remain up, with the archives intact.

Book Introduction: TurboJetSlams: Proof #29 of the Non-Existence of God

I have a book introduction for you this week! Jass Richards stops by to talk about her book, TurboJetSlams: Proof #29 of the Non-Existence of God. I've actually read this one, and it is a humorous mix of story and philosophy-tinged thought about what we owe each other. Below, Jass explains what made her write it.

Guest Post: Eight BookTubers You Need to Subscribe to

Today I have a guest post from Dane Cobain, who introduced his book No Rest for the Wicked to us about a year ago. Today's post isn't an introduction to a book. Instead it is an introduction to BookTube, which is something I've been meaning to explore!
