Dreams of the Dying

Well that was completely and utterly fucked. In the best way possible.

If you like any of: immersive world-building, solid characters, philosophical discussions about morality and/or determinism, dream-like alt realities, or depictions of various mental health issues then you will find something to enjoy here.

For a debut novel this is beyond incredible and I definitely will be reading anything else in this universe!

If you see this before getting the book, get the hardback. The extra ~100 or so pages of historical notes, lectures, drawings and sketches, bestiary, and entire in-world language are super duper worth it. It “elevates” the book from something that I would read, enjoy, and put on the shelf gathering dust to something that I want to display as art!
