Emma Mieko Candon is a bestselling queer author who writes about devouring ghosts, cursed linguistics, and mediocre robots. Her previous novel, Star Wars Visions: Ronin, reimagined the Star Wars mythos through a Japanese lens. Editor by day, escaped academic by night, she is at all hours beholden to the whims of two lopsided cats and grateful for the support of an enviably handsome wife.
Giant robots stomp around a lush and tactile world of ruined cities and unknowable AI gods, which is all one could ever need. --Tamsyn Muir, New York Times bestselling author of the Locked Tomb series The Archive Undying is everything you could want in a mecha novel. Emma Mieko Candon is brilliant. --Ann Leckie, Hugo and Nebula award-winning author of Ancillary Justice A riotous and romantic ride of identity, divinity and technology --Freya Marske, author of Marvellous Light With the salvage-punk appeal of 70's pulp, and the cozy, rust-hazed apocalyptica of 90's anime, this book is gold, crystal, and crimson splendor with a beating pirate heart. --Jennifer Giesbrecht, author of The Monster of Elendhaven An intelligent, fiercely queer story of identity, autonomy and giant robots. An imaginative rollercoaster! --Foz Meadows, author of A Strange and Stubborn Endurance Spiky, tender, sexy, and strange, The Archive Undying is a narrative labyrinth that surprised me on every page; an unfolding fractal of a science fiction novel. --Lara Elena Donnelly, author of Amberlough and Grace Notes
