for the record: A MEMORY CALLED EMPIRE (Teixcalaan #1 ) and A DESOLATION CALLED PEACE (Teixcalaan #2 ) are a duology. Two books! One complete arc! There will (eventually) be more Teixcalaan. More Teixcalaan will not be direct sequels. ✴️✴️💕

I am incredibly pleased and thrilled: A MEMORY CALLED EMPIRE has a starred review from Kirkus.

A MEMORY CALLED EMPIRE | Kirkus Reviews

A scholar of Byzantine history brings all her knowledge of intricate political maneuvering to bear in her debut space opera.

Today is the last day for Nebula Award nominations! (Hugo nominations are ongoing for the next few weeks.) It seems faintly improbable (time is a flat circle), but A DESOLATION CALLED PEACE is a 2021 book and is eligible for Best Novel for both the Nebula and the Hugo this year.

Cover for the signed limited edition of @arkadymartine ‘s A Memory Called Empire by @subpress . (SOLD OUT) Such a pleasure to illustrate for this epic space opera. I LOVE the original cover by Jaime Jones for @torbooks so much, it would be lying if I said I wasn’t stressed.😅

You may not believe it of me, but occasionally I write cute shit. Teixcalaanli cute shit, even. Here's the plot-relevant space kitten, for instance, in A DESOLATION CALLED PEACE:

First experiment with ruby chocolate. Not my prettiest or most successful work, but it tempered decently and I almost got the variegated shell look right by the end. (These are all lemon cremes, which is the pale yellow you can see where I screwed up the wall thickness.)

Look! Czech edition of A DESOLATION CALLED PEACE! This is so cool. … also delighted by being Arkady Martineova, correctly marking gender in Czech (where Arkady would almost always be a masculine name)
