Coyote Run
(2025)(The first book in the Amazing Tales of Antifascist Action series)
A Story by Lilith Saintcrow
In the first Amazing Tale of Antifascist Action, New York Times bestselling author Lilith Saintcrow serves up science fiction pulp in a North America fractured by drones, bioweapons, and ideology, giving us a heroine practically made out of violent resistance.
THE RUNNER
Just behind the front lines of a war they call 'civil', the shifter called Coyote is tough, fast, ugly-and known for taking jobs nobody else will.
THE JOB
Marge's sister is locked in a prison camp civilians shouldn't know about, deep in enemy territory. Rescuing her will take a plan made of weapons-grade insanity.
THE TRICK
To get in, all Coyote has to do is get caught.
THE PAYOFF
None, unless the satisfaction of killing an old enemy counts. And maybe a few small bounties from murdering fascist clones...
RUN, COYOTE. RUN.
Genre: Science Fiction

Praise for this book
"This is the kind of bad-ass pulp adventure that kept you up reading between the covers with a flashlight as a kid, but updated for grown-ass adults who want some 21st-century awesomeness. Inject more of this into my veins, please!" - Tobias S Buckell
"No punches pulled here: every gonzo scene is an amped-up, rocket-powered piledriver smashing straight into the slack-jawed face of fascism. They can run, but the little bitches can't hide." - Curtis C Chen
"Coyote is a fantastic, grindhouse-level heroine and a freakin' joy on every page. Absolute non-stop, ass-kicking fun!" - Peter Clines
"Gritty shapeshifters, bloody revenge, and antifascist solidarity, told with darkly wry humor, raw action sequences, and a soupcon of unexpected romance." - Kate Elliott
"Coyote Run is a wide-open balls-to-the-wall perfect blend of horror, pulp, and just plain wicked fun." - T Frohock
"Like Coyote, this novella never lets up and doesn't blink first. Sentence after marvellous sentence, it had me wincing, cackling, and applauding in turns. This book goes like a lit fuse." - Kate Heartfield
"Offensively good and immensely satisfying. Lilith Saintcrow packs more worldbuilding into single sentences than most people manage in entire books. A compelling mix of brutality and compassion, with just a twist of gallows humor as the finishing touch: exactly what one expects from Saintcrow, who never disappoints." - C E Murphy
"If you're fed up with unhinged bad guys, Lilith Saintcrow delivers kickass unhinged good guys-shapeshifting, sci-fi berserkers who love nothing better than feeding steel-toed boots to fascists." - Cherie Priest
"Coyote Run is a gnarly, adrenaline-packed sprint of a tale, brimming with guts, grime, and deliciously bloody catharsis. If Fury Road had shifters, it would feel like Coyote Run." - Lauren Thoman
