Prequel
No Precedent
Before the first world, there was one mind, and nothing to hear it.
Emin is the Steward of a young planet, ageless and complete, yet nobody has ever witnessed him. When the Others arrive and inventory his living world without noticing that it is alive, he cuts a portion out of himself to make someone who can see what he sees, and names her Antara.

Book One
Blast Damage
The world ends in silence. Then something wakes inside the skin of the man who survived it.
Meashell has no voice, no hands, and no memory of before, only the certainty that she loves Emin and two small marks on her own forearm that she logs as blast damage. Across three ages of a world that keeps ending, she is the only memory in existence.

Three places. No order.
In the Households, Wen grades the drying leaf at Nine Sheds. In the Mesh, Detective Silas Vance picks up a heartbeat from a place nothing comes back from. In the Beds, the Craft lays the whole palm flat. None of the three knows the others exist. Something recurs in all of them anyway.

Three Wisemen
Three men. Three gifts. One life.
Boone is eighteen in the summer of the rope swing. Dan sits in a recliner with his chest sewn shut, writing a letter to the son he hit. Pop is seventy-nine and awake at three in the morning. Gold, frankincense, myrrh: food, desire, rest. A novel about what drives a man, and what it costs the people riding in the car with him.
