From the author of a tweet that Mark Hamill liked comes a book which R.A. Salvatore wished ‘Congratulations‘ on finishing & Brandon Sanderson sent his ‘deep apologies for being unable to provide a jacket quote at this time because his work schedule is busier than ever, making it extremely difficult to find the time he would want to dedicate to your book,’ comes a modern Solarpunk fairytale, just in time to help avert an apocalypse of apoplectic apathy.
Finding time can be difficult in today’s hypermodern world.
Making time, however, can be magick.
The world might be going to hell in a handbasket, but it isn’t always going to be that way.
In 2038, in the SOLARPUNK futuristic city of Chongqing, things are looking almost rosy. That is until a story gets told that sets off a chain reaction that threatens our world and the entire multiverse. This is the story of that story. The world’s spiciest ice cream, a trip to Chongqing’s rural countryside, & a strange collection of curious belongings begin this unforgettable tale that mixes Solar Punk science fiction and high fantasy for a thrilling modern fairytale about a boy who mistakenly believes he has all the time in the world and must risk his soul to chase a 9-tail fox into the dreamlands for the adventure of a lifetime and the chance to save his family.
