Which one is that? I got the upscaled santa claus and arkham asylum (not on sale but double rewards and all the gwps)

Book cover for The Unidentified by Rae Mariz. Stark white background with a 3D rendered illustration of an “unimpressed face” emoji—two white spheres make the eyes and a straight rectangle mouth between—splattered with splotches of bright pink paint. Cory Doctorow, bestselling author of Little Brother calls it “Subversive, cleverly written, challenging and surprising.” New expanded edition.

My daughter just turned 15, the same age as the MC in my debut YA SF that came out 15 years ago. (Yes, I had a debut novel and firstborn in the same month.)

I’m re-releasing a new edition of that novel now. 15 years later. The ebook’s out November 15. (Print coming soon.)
