For fans of Holly Black and Nova Ren Suma, a gripping, hauntingly atmospheric novel about murder, revenge, and a world where monsters—human and otherwise—lurk at the fringes. When seventeen-year-old Breezy Lin wakes up in a shallow grave one year after her death, she doesn’t remember who killed her or why. All she knows is that she’s somehow conscious—and not only that, she’s able to sense who around her is hiding a murderous past. In life, Breezy was always drawn to the elegance of the universe and the mystery of the stars. Now she must set out to find answers and discover what is to become of her in the gritty, dangerous world to which she now belongs—where killers hide in plain sight, and a sinister cult is hunting for strange creatures like her. What she finds is at once empowering, redemptive, and dangerous. Tense, complex, and wholly engaging, Shallow Graves is a stunning first novel from Kali Wallace.
This volume is the first of an intended series of comedic fiction, based on observations and reflections on the world as we create and perceive it in an everyday sense. These reflections are contained within the various puns, riddles, micro-stories and cartoons herein, flavoured by the liberal dusting of a dry sense of humour. Elements of life common to all of us are found here, expressed in a minimalist manner so that you, the reader, form the true image in your head, as pertinent to your life. The words simply plant the seed. Just be warned that the seed may provide unexpected fruit, but this is fully intended. If life were to be fully predictable, it would have no life in it. To laugh at our own foibles is to be content with ourselves, even if only for a moment or two. We trust you will embark with us on a voyage of introspection, celebration and pure imagination as we set out to explore the frontiers of the human experience and the nether-reaches of pure silliness. This combination sets us free of the weight of world for a time, opens our hearts and minds to recall the many roads and milestones of our lives, while wrapped in the warm hug of humour. Come with us. We have cookies!
