Reviews
“Even as the character arcs pack emotional punches and the plot builds with intensity, the story is balanced with the humor and wry character introspection Klune (In the Lives of Puppets) is known for… This reissued stand-alone solidifies Klune’s reputation for skillful prose and worldbuilding.” —Library Journal, starred review
“Are we going on an adventure? Yes, yes we are! This is the sci-fi romance adventure you never knew you needed. TJ’s characters are broken but they are so full of heart and hope that you will lose yourself entirely to their story and find that they will continue to remain in your heart long after you have finished.”
—Jennifer L. Armentrout, New York Times bestselling author of Fall of Ruin and Wrath
