5.0

Back in late 2020, I found I couldn’t write another serious novel about serious people dealing with serious problems. And so I set out to write a fun, silly, fluffy book to amuse myself. 

Apparently, I wasn’t alone in that feeling. John Scalzi felt it too. 

I took those feelings and wrote The Left Hand of Dog. John Scalzi wrote The Kaiju Preservation Society. While I wouldn’t call this one cosy, it does have common features with cosy sci-fi. For starters, it’s just so much fun. It’s affirming and heartwarming. 

A rip-roaring tale full of adorable characters living their best lives.
