Praise for
The Year of Return
Praise for No Sympathy
"Nuanced, disturbing, powerful, political. Ofori is a stunning new voice."
—Samit Basu
"Akotowaa’s The Year of Return is a moving story weaving history, family ties, and found community into a unique tapestry. It seamlessly pulls the past into the present, bringing ancestors and descendants together, and forcing to the surface the consequences of injustices long committed. She presents the lived experiences of our ancestors in its rawest, most authentic form. The Year of Return is a remembrance, an unearthing, and a worthy piece of storytelling."
—Oghenechovwe Donald Ekpeki. Nebula, Locus, Otherwise, British, World Fantasy award winner, Hugo, British Science Fiction & NAACP Image award finalist.
"A moving and timely perspective on one of the greatest horrors in human history. Ofori presents ancient and recent events in a startlingly original take about our responsibilities to our past, our present, and our future."
—R.S.A. Garcia, Locus, Sturgeon, Nebula and IGNYTE Award finalist
Praise for
Different Kinds of Defiance
"Different Kinds of Defiance is a collection of stories that are both tender and explosive, centering resistance towards bleak futures and inaction, collaboration and community, restoration, social justice, environmental impact, and rebellions and risked lives aimed at reparations all told through musical prose written by an experienced hand and polished voice. Bernardo effectively subverts stereotypes and redefines concepts. These stories plant seeds of hope for the future and caution us against what humanity stands to both gain and lose as a result of technology, science, and most of all human-centric thinking."
—Ai Jiang, Nebula, BSFA, Bram Stoker Award Finalist and author of LINGHUN and I AM AI
"This book is a true exploration of self-destruction. Read it in solitude and learn what it means to truly have nothing left to lose."
—Tina Alberino, editor and cult leader at The Dread Machine
"No Sympathy’s combination of urban magic, critiques of everyday life, and a plea for genuine human solidarity that both takes on and sublates our own finitude and failings is exactly what we need more of. Can we forge new bonds of solidarity, wielding the magic of modernity to make a new and better world? If fantasy is for anything, surely it must help us answer this question. On every level a bold debut from a writer to watch!"
—Jon Greenaway, author of Capitalism: A Horror Story
"The bleakest take on wizards and magic, No Sympathy is urban fantasy somehow still isolated from the real world. It's surreal, yet completely grounded, and is one of the most unique examples of the genre I've had the pleasure of reading. A fascinating and philosophical journey, set in locales around the world but tethered to none. Dooley’s unique voice weaves a fresh—if sad—story about what magic can be. Dooley subverts the hero's quest, the Chosen One trope, and other fantasy staples. The protagonist may be annoyed by that, but you won't. No Sympathy is a welcome divergence from mainstream fiction."
—Creag Munroe, editor of Elegant Literature Magazine
"Different Kinds of Defiance offers heart-rending and moving stories of small miracles. In Renan Bernardo's world, miracles aren't the deeds of saints, but of everyday people who count on themselves and each other for survival against a harsh landscape."
—Eugenia Triantafyllou, Ignyte, Nebula and World Fantasy Award-finalist author
A NEW FANTASY NOVELLA FROM
NEBULA & STURGEON AWARD WINNING AUTHOR
R.S.A. GARCIA

In a world that sits at the nexus of Gods and monsters, science and magic, the aftermath of a war has decimated the "First Gods," and the remnants of humanity try to pick up the pieces. But when conflict arises again, a found family of monsters, demi-gods, scientists and magicians will come together to try to save what they love and bring a new magic to their dying world.
Iris has chafed at a life spent in the service of the Archmagus, the man who rescued her as a child and the only father she has ever known. But when she meets a charming thief while carrying out one of the Archmagus' many searches for magikal artefacts, she realises it will not be enough for her to simply escape the Citadel and her acerbic adopted family of the Aello, its winged guardians. The Archmagus has lied to her about her past, and the truth she finds will lead her to make a choice. Stay on the path she'd imagined for herself as an unwilling member of a family of monsters--or follow the consequences of her unbearable truth to the unexpected.
Destined to be a
Classic of Indigenous Futurism
As Many Ships As Stars is a sci-fi retelling of one of the stories about how the Numunu (Comanche) acquired horses.
In a future where Earth is ravaged by the greed of the wealthy, one woman's desperate act of defiance becomes a journey of transformation and decolonization.
Leia Wurahapt, a resolute Numunu woman, struggles to support her extended family in near-future Albuquerque. As head of a large household, she balances the weight of her ancestors' wisdom with the harsh realities of a world teetering on the edge of collapse. Working for a private corporation that exploits public resources, Leia finds herself helping construct escape ships bound for Mars, a last resort for the world's elite to flee their self-inflicted crisis.
But Leia has other plans.
Fueled by a fierce determination to protect her loved ones and reject the colonial structures that have oppressed her people for centuries, Leia and her former sister-in-law, Olga, hijack one of the ships. With their family and friends in tow, they embark on a voyage to the stars aboard The Futura, leaving Earth behind forever.
What follows is an epic, multigenerational tale of survival, resilience, and rebirth spanning 30,000 years. As Many Ships As Stars invites readers to reimagine progress through traditional ways. Weyodi OldBear weaves a visionary narrative that is both a tribute to her heritage and a bold vision for the future.
