"""A herculean work of ambition, This World Is Not Yours is not only a fantastic story of extraterrestrial threats and survival in alien worlds, but also a startlingly accurate examination of interpersonal relationships""--Cassandra Khaw, author of Nothing But Blackened Teeth and The Salt Grows Heavy ""A rich, sharp shock of a novella, churning with corrupted love and corrupted nature. This World Is Not Yours may occur galaxies away, but the dread it evokes is anything but alien. Because we all suspect our own version of the Gray is out there, don't we? And we're all preparing for its embrace.""--Nat Cassidy, author of Mary: An Awakening of Terror ""Intricate world building with characters that feel like people you know in real life. I loved this take on cli-fi and the unexpected way in which humans are, as always, their own worst enemy.""--SA Barnes, author of Dead Silence ""A thrilling and intense mixture of love triangle and scientific hubris.""--Stina Leicht, author of Persephone Station and Loki's Ring ""The entire novel is a taut, twisted countdown to destruction. . . .will appeal to readers who like sci-fi horror, such as Ghost Station by S.A. Barnes and the creepiest parts of Cassandra Khaw's eldritch worldbuilding.""--Library Journal"
