The Fall Is All There Is

BBNYA FINALIST

SPFBO 9 FINALIST

INDIE INK AWARDS FINALIST

All Petre Mercy wanted was a good old-fashioned dramatic exit from his life as a prince. But it's been five years since he fled home on a cyborg horse. Now the King - his Dad - is dead - and Petre has to decide which heir to pledge his thyroid-powered sword to.

As the youngest in a set of quadruplets, he's all too aware that the line of succession is murky. His siblings are on the precipice of power grabs, and each of them want him to pick their side.

If Petre has any hope of preventing civil war, he'll have to avoid one sibling who wants to take him hostage, win back another's trust after years of rivalry and resentment, and get an audience with a sister he's been avoiding for five years.

Before he knows it, he's plunged himself into a web of intrigue and a world of strange, unnatural inventions just to get to her doorstep.

Family reunions can be a special form of torture.

"The Fall Is All There Is feels like Prince of Thorns on acid."
- John Mauro, Before We Go Blog

"The Fall Is All There Is is a wonderfully weird, unapologetically unhinged, and darkly entertaining gendreblendy gem of a book. It throws all genre conventions and reader expectations straight out the window, and that is exactly where its irresistible charm lies."
-Esmay Rosalyne, Fantasy Book Critic

"The Fall is All There Is might be the strangest grimdark science-fiction/fantasy political intrigue chaos mess that I have ever read. It made me want to hide beneath my blanket and never talk to another human being again. I don’t think I could actually endure reading it for a second time. It was glorious."
- Olivia Atwater, SPFBO8 Winner and author of Small Miracles
