A work of crystalline vision and meticulous humanity. John Chu folds universes into shape.”—Max Gladstone, NYT-Bestselling co-author of This is How You Lose the Time War
“Not enough SciFi contends with how hard people work to keep everything from falling out of the sky. Chu steps up to that challenge with a spirited exploration 'behind the scenes' of how fragile our world is (and the maintenance it requires). It bends physics and genres alike. It's a book we need right now.”—John Wiswell, Nebula Award winning author of Someone You Can Build a Nest In and Wearing the Lion
“A wildly imaginative ride following people who maintain the universe as they navigate conspiracies, change and profound grief. Effortless, brimming with ideas and with deep heart—not to mention mouth watering food.”—Aliette de Bodard, Nebula award-winning author of Navigational Entanglements
“A thorny, savory story about our deepest dependencies and the lies we tell to maintain them.”—Seth Dickinson, author of Exordia
“A hearty helping of dysfunctional family dynamics accompanied by a delicious side of multiverse. I'd like seconds, please.”—Cat Rambo, author of the Space Opera Disco series
