Transmentation | Transience is out now!

"…masterful worldbuilding [that] is both sweeping and detailed, with believably delineated planets, ecologies, cultures, and governments. Sci-fi readers will be eager for a swift return to this setting." 

—Publishers Weekly review of Transmentation | Transience

Transmentation | Transience is more than the sum of its parts, engaging the mind and the heart with a perspective that is simultaneously farseeing and intimate.
— Kate Heartfield, Sunday Times bestselling author of The Embroidered Book

Mind-bending sci-fi at its absolute best. A gorgeously told story.
