Patch Arcana<p>Book Promotion: Since the tragedy of 1994, Agency Division have weilded their authority over matters arcane with relative impunity. Enforcers like Vidcund Därk, collectively known as the Men in Black, serve a single purpose - the absolute eradicaton of magic and those who would use it. This is not an uncommon goal - a group of rogue arcanists known as the Grey Angels have much the same outcome in mind. When a respected mathematics professor obtains a translated copy of the <u>Pnakotic Manuscripts</u>, the hunt is on to determine how he got hold of it. But soon, a bigger crisis unfolds - one that Agency Division can’t keep under wraps.</p><p><a href="https://www.sanityline.net" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">sanityline.net</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p><a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/readers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>readers</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/bookstodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bookstodon</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/fedibookfair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fedibookfair</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/dystopia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dystopia</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/urbanfantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>urbanfantasy</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/adventure" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>adventure</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/action" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>action</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/thriller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thriller</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/series" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>series</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://furry.engineer/tags/reading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>reading</span></a></p>
eddiebbot<p>We recall that miracle of progress, Silicon Valley. The success and growth of this new conglomerate produced a new and completely crazy proletariat in 1950, with salaries the lowest in the USA, overpopulation in a distant suburb, extreme industrial pollution, a high rate of divorce and infanticide, high-density population, etc. This is the result of high tech at its extreme. --Jaques Ellul The Technological Bluff (1988) <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/dystopia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dystopia</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>technology</span></a></p>
