Praise for Lilith Saintcrow:
"Saintcrow's rough, rawboned prose paints a world not on the edge, but already over it, revealing an alternate history of America that is achingly relevant to the America in which we live. Simply put, Saintcrow doesn't f*** around." --Chuck Wendig, author of Wanderers on Afterwar
"Incredibly timely, well written and important.... A testament to Saintcrow's skill." --Los Angeles Times on Afterwar
"A true faery story, creepy and heroic by turns. Love and hope and a touch of Midsummer Night's Dream. I could not put it down." --Patricia Briggs, author of the Mercy Thompson series on Trailer Park Fae
"Painfully honest, beautifully strange, and absolutely worth your time. Lilith Saintcrow is at the top of her game. Don't miss this." --Seanan McGuire, author of the Wayward Children series on Trailer Park Fae
