🚨James releases in paperback next week!!!🚨

Percival Everett’s wry and irreverent remix of Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn was one of our personal favourites of last year, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to put it into even more hands as a beautiful paperback 😍

Dengue Boy by Michel Nieva is a unique blend of the horror, cyberpunk and dystopian genres, and one of our most unputdownable recent reads πŸ‘€ πŸ“–

In 2272, much of the earth’s habitable land is underwater. Dengue Boy, a humanoid mosquito, searches for his origins, and the meaning of his life… 🦟🦟🦟
