If The Persephone Effect gets just 20 more preorders, we'll write a story where Persephone extravagantly hunts YOU down and turns you into a copy of herself. Then she consumes you in a feast of religious selfcest.

An excellent scifi book series! Book one, the Hades Calculus, was my favourite read of last year :)

My latest book, co-written with @devi.bsky.social, is a mecha cyberpunk retelling of Hades/Persephone: lesbians, giant monsters, cannibalism, Greek gods as you've never seen them before, and a delightful amount of blood.
