Chewy, gooey, thought-provoking and above all -- a great deal of fun." --Kameron Hurley <p/>"Gritty. It usually means rough and tumble.

Jaqi feels real, and man, is she full of grit." --Mary Robinette Kowal <p/>"Cozy, classic space opera is twisted in innovative, awesome ways in Ellsworth's debut <i>A Red Peace</i>.
