  PALACES AND OTHER PRISONS Tinsel & Tentacles 3.0 - Book Eight by TJ Nichols Release Date: November 21, 2025 Review This is a side story to TJ’s Mytho Collapse series and I thoroughly enjoyed it. You don’t need to have read the series to read this. King Ul’s island has appeared on earth, in the same location as an oil rig. Being secluded in the North Sea, no one knows what’s happened, but with no sign of the mainland getting to them any time soon, humans and mythologicals must figure out how to communicate and live together. King Ul is a kind man carrying the weight of his people and his past losses on his shoulders. When he meets rig worker Dawson, who acts as an emissary, sparks fly (or rather skin glows). I love the journey of all of them trying to figure their way through this, learning their languages, and discovering their feelings. It was tender and hopeful.  Add to your TBR List GOODREADS LINK Synopsis Sometimes the world is actually ending… Dawson Hill is used to...
