Been sitting on this news for a while! There's going to be a Children of Time TTRPG courtesy of the amazing folk at Rowan Rook and Decard (Heart, Spire, DIE, Eat the Reich and many more).
The cover of WHO WILL YOU SAVE? by Gareth L Powell. It shows a figure on an alien landscape reaching up to a figure standing on an upside down reflection of the landscape above. The cover of JITTERBUG by Gareth L Powell features a stylised rocket silhouette at the centre of an orrery, with a space suited figure dangling in its wake
Here I am with the books of the moment! The BSFA Award-shortlisted collection WHO WILL YOU SAVE? and the newly released novel JITTERBUG. They pair nicely together for anyone who likes imaginative fiction with great characters.
Get them now from @titanbooks.bsky.social and all good booksellers.

This infographic titled "The Women of the Periodic Table" highlights ten women and their contributions to element discovery. A central periodic table marks specific elements in green and orange, with lines connecting them to names and portraits. Featured scientists include Marie Curie (polonium, radium), Marguerite Perey (francium), and Clarice Phelps (tennessine). It traces history from early pioneers like Harriet Brooks to modern teams including Dawn Shaughnessy and Darleane Hoffman.
Today is the #InternationalDayOfWomenAndGirlsInScience 👩🔬 This graphic highlights women of the periodic table, the elements they discovered, and the two elements named after women.
