Book Summary and Reviews of Ardent Violet and the Infinite Eye by Alex White

Media Reviews

"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
