It was a pleasure and a privilege to edit this book with
@klschroeder.bsky.social, one that I fell in love with straight from the submissions pile. A quiet, aching story that radiates a love of all life while looking death, personal and species-wide, right in the eyes.

When I read this novella in submissions, I knew we had to have it. The story is dark and timely, focusing on damaged systems: bodies and planets, human and animal. We are more alike than not, every person a world being ravaged by changing climates: environmental, emotional.

its here!! would you also like to also fall in love with a lizard named Hecate? 🦎🖤 get thee to the preorder :)

As unofficial town sorcerer, I'm sending out a mild, ineffective charm that will help you meet a rather colossal friendly dog.

but important PS: that figure assumes the zombies have the ability to coordinate the 6-day boat journey to Tristan da Cunha, while also organizing a plane to every single fly-in community in Northern Canada...
