![]() ![]() If there’s one thing she can put her hope in, it’s her violin. Katrina Nguyen, a young trans woman, ran away from her abusive home and into the hands of toxic gays. I’m just a gay reader dragged into the water towards the beautiful sirens. The Queen of Hell, a Faustian bargain, a trans runaway with dreams of classical music, alien asylum seekers, aliens making donuts. ![]() It does feel like Tor says yes to every original idea and manages to make it marketable when most publishers wouldn’t even bat an eyelash. The weird and fresh science fiction belongs to them more than any other speculative imprint. That Tor published this doesn’t surprise me in the slightest. The premise to Light From Uncommon Stars seemed absolutely wild to me. It’s bittersweet but also has that feeling of losing yourself in an old romantic bookstore. It’s about the power of found family, with the absolute loveliest and space-tastic sapphic mommas you’ll ever read. ![]() Ryka Aoki brings me that in the rawest and sweetest form–a story about a trans girl with scars. Trigger warnings: deadnaming, homophobia, transphobia, sexual assault, rape. ![]()
