Weave the Lightning
Coming Spring 2020 from Solaris Books!

In a 1910s, Russian-inspired fascist state, a young man trained by the state and a young female resistance fighter confront each other and their prejudices.  Faced with the unexpected return of magical storms, they must learn to control their magic and untangle truth from propaganda in order to save their country from its brutal regime.

For fans of Brent Weeks’ Lightbringer series and Leigh Bardugo’s Six of Crows, this stunning fantasy debut combines rich, Russian-inspired worldbuilding, a complex magic system, and passionate characters in a multilayered tale of personal discovery and political awakening.

A former ballet dancer turned military commando plunges into a deadly alien forest to discover its hidden military secrets.

 “‘Shutdown’ is a beautifully vivid and imaginative story — this is what science fiction is supposed to do.”
— Tim Powers, World Fantasy Award-winning author

Podcast & free e-version of “Shutdown” available from Escape Pod (episode 376).

Shutdown is included in Writers of the Future, vol. 28

“The offerings [in Vol. 28 of the Writers of the Future anthology] are thought provoking and varied, with a general trend toward excellence.”
