Advance praise for Lightless "Absolutely brilliant . . . This is science fiction as it is meant to be done: scientific concepts wedded to and built upon human ideals." --Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of the October Daye series, " Lightless is contained, disciplined, tense and occasionally lyrical . . . The writing, particularly when Ms. Higgins describes the workings of the computer, is often beautiful. . . . Lightless is the first of a planned series, and you can't help looking forward to learning what's next for Althea and Ananke." -- The New York Times " Lightless is full of suspense and fun as hell to read." -- BuzzFeed "Absolutely brilliant . . . This is science fiction as it is meant to be done: scientific concepts wedded to and built upon human ideals." --Seanan McGuire, New York Times bestselling author of the October Daye series "The stakes in this story are high--life and death, rebellion and betrayal--and debut novelist Higgins continually ratchets up the tension. . . . A suspenseful, emotional story that asks plenty of big questions about identity and freedom, this is a debut not to be missed." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
