Book Launch Week Means You Hear From Me Often.
The new White Space novel, The Folded Sky, is out this week!
"Elizabeth Bear’s White Space series is the sociopolitical science fiction I’ve always wanted: profoundly interested in how people negotiate ethics and interdependence through a frame of future emotional and governmental technologies. Brilliant, humane, and compelling."
— Hugo-award-winning novelist Arkady Martine
"...showcases her smart and introspective command of space opera. Well-developed characters highlight not only big ideas of artificial intelligence, xenophobia, and data preservation but family dynamics and scientific rivalries."
—Library Journal starred review
