The end of our world is well-trod territory for science fiction but Goldilocks tackles it with startling relevance, fusing together our social and political anxieties in a tense, taut adventure with rich characterization and care. It's Interstellar'sbrain with The Handmaid's Tale's heart.
Chuck Wendig, author of The Wanderers
A gripping science fiction thriller where five women task themselves with ensuring the survival of the human race—if you mixed "…The Martian and The Handmaid's Tale, this sci-fi novel would be the incredible result" (Book Riot).
