The “romantasy” author beloved by BookTok has become such a hit with readers that she’s rocket-boosted the share price of her publishers, Bloomsbury. The last time it had such a hit on its hands was via another writer who created magical worlds: JK Rowling, of course. So is this Maas movement the new Pottermania? There are certainly similarities between the two authors, [which I discuss in my piece](~/AAAHagA~/RgRnutYQP0TzaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaW5kZXBlbmRlbnQuY28udWsvYXJ0cy1lbnRlcnRhaW5tZW50L2Jvb2tzL2ZlYXR1cmVzL3NhcmFoLWotbWFhcy1zZXJpZXMtYm9va3Mtamstcm93bGluZy1iMjUwMDAwOC5odG1sP2xpZD1peDJ0dXJvMnFudXkmdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fc291cmNlPWJyYXplJnV0bV9jYW1wYWlnbj1JbmR5QXJ0cyBOZXdzbGV0dGVyIDIzLTAyLTI0JnV0bV90ZXJtPUlORF9DdWx0dXJlX05ld3NsZXR0ZXJfQ0RQVwVzcGNldUIKZdcQUdhlRqVJu1IbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luOTBAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAMj).

Opening hot on the heels of London Fashion Week, the show offers an alternative runway that invites us to reconsider the American expatriate’s work according to attire. The models include his key patrons – typically, but not always, wealthy members of high society – as well as fellow figures in the arts, politics and entertainment. And the fashion? Well, it speaks for itself.

If it lacks drama, that will have been its subject’s intention.

A lone figure stands astride a mountainous worm as it pummels through the sand like Moses parting the Red Sea. A man is trapped by a psychic seduction, its effects splintering across the screen in what could only be described as an indoor thunderstorm. Gladiatorial combat takes place on a planet with an environment so inhospitable, its colours so drained, that it looks almost like a photographic negative.
