January Book Reviews: Nicked by MT Anderson

Picked this book up because it was one of the titles on the site formerly known as tordotcom's best of 2024 list. In Nicked, incurably honest Benedictine Nicephorus has a dream of St Nicholas, making him the perfect pawn for the city's leadership. They want to steal the saint's body from its resting place in Myra, and Nicephorus is a perfect representative to send along on the heist in order to pretend the theft is divinely willed...

Do you know, this is the second book I've read in a month where a guy gets talked into stealing a corpse by his gay crush? Excellent concept, they should keep writing them. And as soon as I opened Nicked, I was struck by the excellent prose and solid grasp of the early medieval period and the Catholic saint fraud shenanigans (1087, to be precise). The overall setting is strictly historical and based on real accounts rather than fantastical--except for the author's mischievous decision to include a character who has the literal head of a dog, because cynocephales were mentioned in medieval geographic accounts.

The romance subplot is subtly done enough that I spent most of the novel wondering whether the author was aware that he'd written Nicephorus as attracted to their conman guide Tyun and commit to the bit. Spoiler, he does. It's clear that Anderson doesn't come from a romance background, but that unfamiliarity lends the romance a certain freshness and originality, rather than making it clunky.

A subtle and dryly funny gem of a novel with whip-sharp observations on a real historical event. Thoroughly deserves its inclusion on the best of 2024 list. Recommended.

Tell me where you're from in the tags, if you want.

Reblog for sample size!

random userbase data time

(listed almost every/every game as one option in case you skipped out on some of the multiplayer ones)

please reblog after you vote for Maximum Data, even if you voted no! if you voted for one of the other options, tag your favorite game(s)!

I am just very interested in the presence of the zelda fanbase :>

please note that, for the sake of this poll, remakes count as one game. so like, if you've played the original ocarina of time and master quest and the 3ds version, that counts as one game.
