-Ben Loory, author of Tales of Falling and Flying

"Even in the darkest of these perfectly crafted stories, Sam Miller's tragic boys yearn to be good instead of bad, strong instead of weak, whole instead of broken. May your heart ache with love for every doomed one of them; I know mine did."

-Andy Davidson, author of The Boatman's Daughter

"Sure to please fans of cli-fi, weird sea creatures, queer SFF and pretty much everyone who wants to read something brilliant, strange and new."
