Produktbeschreibung
ANTS WAKING is a thrilling, visceral magical realism tale about an autistic college freshman in the magical city of Cambridge racing against meddlesome gods for the means to thwart their friend's premature death before a Dark storm consumes them. The title novella is accompanied by R.J. Huneke's illustrations plus bonus material: previously published and unpublished short stories and select poetry. For every book sold, the author is donating $1 to the Global Action for Trans Equality [GATE] and $1 to the Autistic Self Advocacy Network, to benefit the trans and neurodivergent communities. Erica's journey into the magical city of Cambridge to attempt to thwart their beloved Danny's untimely death has become legend. As an autistic college freshman-turned Story Warrior, Erica trudges the magical city's snowy, cobblestoned labyrinth full of streetlamp faeries and meddling gods in the hopes of finding the Legioness at the city's heart, before the onset of the Dark conquers the day and, with it, the only chance of redeeming tragedy. For readers of fantasy literature, ANTS WAKING is a fairy tale noir akin to Alix E. Harrow's The Ten Thousand Doors of January crossed with Edgar Allan Poe's "The Tell-Tale Heart" with a touch of Mickey Spillane's I, the Jury. Twice now, reviewers have compared Huneke's writing to Dickens: 'Charles Dickens would "feel right at home walking these streets"...The streets, the environment Huneke has described definitely gives off a flavour o a dark, miserable Dickens tale.'
