Bel Dame Apocrypha Book 2

Infidel

An action packed, high concept, far future thriller from the Hugo award winning author of the Worldbreaker Saga Series and The Stars are Legion

Infidel is a well thought-out and intelligent novel, which asks a number of questions and refuses to present easy answers.

Readers who enjoyed God's War will not be disappointed by Infidel...  I highly recommend it.

Hurley's world-building, vivid and blissfully free of infodumps and expository lumps, was one of the great strengths of God's War, and it's a pleasure to return to the fascinating and messed-up world she created -- one especially enjoyable for its ethnically diverse cast and freewheeling remixes of traditional gender roles.

...Kameron Hurley is worth investing in... this is ground breaking work and should be recognized...

Nyx used to be an assassin, part of the sisterhood of the Bel Dames. Now she's babysitting diplomats to make ends meet and longs for the days when killing was a lot more honorable. So, when her former 'sisters' lead a coup against the government, she's the perfect choice to stop them. 
 
In a rotten nation of giant bugs and renegade shape shifters, Nyx must forge unlikely allies and rekindle old acquaintances if she is to survive. Otherwise, this time, the bodies she leaves scattered across the continent may include her own...

Bel Dame Apocrypha Book 1

God's War

An action packed, far future thriller from Hugo-award winning author Kameron Hurley

A fast-paced thriller full of brutal action and vivid characters ... we’ll be surprised if you find a ballsier and more fun SF novel this year.

Kameron Hurley's a brave, unflinching, truly original writer with a unique vision - her fiction burns right through your brain and your heart.

Hurley's world-building is phenomenal... [she] smoothly handles tricky themes such as race, class, religion, and gender without sacrificing action.

An aggressively dark, highly original SF-fantasy novel with tight, cutting prose and some of the most inventive world-building I've seen in a while.

Kameron Hurley currently works as a marketing and advertising writer in Ohio. Having grown up in and around Washington State. Today Kameron lives a comparatively boring life sustained by Coke Zero, Chipotle, low-carb cooking, and lots of words. Her first novel, GOD'S WAR, has won The Kitschies Gold Tentacle Award for Best Début, a British Fantasy Award for Best Newcomer, and has been nominated for The Arthur C. Clarke Award and British Science Fiction Award.
