"Vibrant, complicated, and passionate, this will leave readers clamoring for more." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"White balances the elements of this space opera brilliantly in this first book in a new series, from the emotional connection between the characters to the huge plot pieces. The connection between Greymalkin and August, especially, is hilarious and endearing; they are two unlikely heroes that the reader will root for." —Booklist
"A brilliant firework display of apocalypses, giant robots, gore, glam, and a nonbinary music icon—this is mecha absolutely masterfully done." —Everina Maxwell, author of Winter's Orbit
"Evangelion by way of David Bowie—visceral, big-hearted, and ready to rock your world." —Emily Skrutskie, author of Bonds of Brass
