Robin Arianhod has been shot down, and is on the run. Trapped behind enemy lines, her only choice is to disappear inside the sprawling capital of Klonn, and use the mysterious rocket pack she stole from the enemy to end the decade-old war. Her vigilantism attracts the attention of more than just the city guards, though, and Robin finds herself embroiled in an underground Klonnish rebellion. But are the rebels really her allies, or are they using her as bait? And will the secrets of her former arch-nemesis end the war, or lead Robin and her allies to their deaths? Rife with high-flying action, subterfuge, and deception, The Skylark’s Sacrifice is the explosive conclusion to the saga of war-torn Saskwya, and the one pilot who can change it all.

Part District 9, part Lost in Translation, part Stranger in a Strange Land. Kalp is a widower, burdened with an unimaginable grief, who escaped his dying world with nothing but his own life and a half-finished toy for a child that will now never be born.Gwen is a language expert covertly recruited for a United Nations initiative to integrate a ship-full of alien refugees into life on earth. She becomes Kalp’s teammate and lifeline. Basil is the engineer who lives with, and loves them, both. But he has no idea how to defend his new relationship against the ire and condemnation of a violently intolerant world. TRIPTYCH is a poignant, character-driven science-fiction story about tolerance, love, loss, and the desperate attempt to find connection in a world that no longer makes sense.

The amazing Ephemera Reading Series has done a wonderful job pivoting from an in-person celebration of literature in Toronto to a monthly online event.  There are over a dozen writers reading from their work, and musicians playing from their hearts on their YouTube Channel. I recently had the great joy to read in Episode 08: Hope. If you want to watch just my reading, you can find the clip on my own YouTube channel (link in bio). But I do encourage you to go and watch every video on the channel and support the amazing creators in their passionate work uplifting local voices. #read #readpride #readcanlit #readcanadian #IReadCanadian #Ireadcanadianbooks #ephemera #readingseries #readingselfie #TheOnceAndNowishKing #kingarthur #merlin #revisionistliterature #myth #legend #mordred #excalibur #ShortStory #authorreading #amwriting #WritingCommunity https://www.instagram.com/p/CDtpeGRA0Ef/?igshid=mdcswz0qxwct

#canlit featuring westcoast/indigenous/supernatural themes. Last year's #sonofatrickster was a Giller Prize shortlist with an intriguing mix of legend-based magic and all too modern traumatic teen experience, but I didn't realize it was part of a series. This sequel shifts locations from small-town interior to Vancouver. Probably trigger warning for people who experienced abuse by parents/authority figures, but the overall experience is a hopeful/empowering read with unexpected twists and seriously trippy dream sequences. . #edenrobinson #readcanadian #vancouverbook #bcbook #firstnationsbooks #yaparanormal #bookstagram #booklove #kaiespace (at Abbotsford, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrlRX5aHoUW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=63nqioaohv26

Here's a rare YA #canlit read! It really rides the line between YA, NA, and adult lit, plus contemporary/fantasy. Totally captures the (rough) experience of living in rural, small-town Canada. These are the sorts of places you drive through on a road trip and never stop. Kids growing up too soon and trying to carry crap that the adults in their lives should have sheltered them from. Terrible parents who probably wanted to do better, but are too messed up by their own pasts to parent. Plus, some eerie supernatural shenanigans based on #firstnationsmythology crossed with bad-dad angst. It's gloriously messed up. Perfect for those who appreciate complexity and a raw edge to their YA reads. Also: vicious paranormal beings in the vein of bloodthirsty fae with an indigenous twist. 😱✨ I'm starting the sequel this week! . #bookishcanadians #readcanadian #readcanada #canadianauthor #edenrobinson #sonofatrickster #spookybooks #firstnationsbooks #bookstagram #bookaholic #kaiespace (at Abbotsford, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpAbndVFvuu/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1wkqxw54wi5sg
