The Planetbreaker's Son (2021)
(Outspoken Authors, book 26)
Nick Mamatas
"The sharpest, funniest, most insightful and political purveyor of post-pulp pleasures going."
thumb
Cygnet (2019)
Season Butler
"Terribly moving. A clear-sighted, poignant rumination on loneliness, love, the melancholy of age and of youth."
thumb
Confessions of the Fox (2018)
Jordy Rosenberg
"Extraordinary and brilliant . . . At once a queer love story, radical counterhistory, and a thrilling page-turner, Confessions of the Fox is a vitally important work of our time."
