Praise for the Bone Universe Trilogy "A fantastic follow-up to
Updraft--I liked it better than its predecessor,
particularly for what it says about the politics of fear and
prejudice, and how giving people what they want isn't always the
best thing. --Aliette de Bodard, award-winning author of House
of Shattered Wings, on Cloudbound A thrilling and
complex tale about the most difficult stage of a revolution: what
do you do after you win? Highly recommended both for the story it
tells as well as how it tells that story. Wilde takes risks that
pay off hugely." --Ken Liu, Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author of
The Grace of Kings, on Cloudbound
Wilde's fantastical trilogy (after Cloudbound) takes on
violent political divisions, ecological desolation, and the
imminent death of the only world the characters have ever
known....Fans of the series will be satisfied by its conclusion.
--Publishers Weekly on Horizon Wilde gives us a
compellingly strange world, one that is alien in the best and most
interesting senses. And the characters are fun. It's a worthy
conclusion to the trilogy, and a satisfying one. --Liz Bourke,
Tor.com, on Horizon [A] series worth reading because it
takes readers to a completely different place than any they've seen
before, to a world where people believe flying is life itself, and
how sometimes even when change is hard it's not necessarily going
to become something worse. --Elitist Book Reviews on
Horizon A book that's impossible to put down. [Wilde has]
planted herself firmly in the "authors to watch" category. --Andrew
Liptak on Updraft The world of the towers grown from bone,
where residents strap on wings and soar the air currents, is
captivating...Kirit's journey to find her place is satisfying, but
the real draw is a world that readers will be anxious to revisit in
future volumes of this exciting new series. --Library
Journal, starred review, on Updraft
