Description
A Goodreads Best Science Fiction Choice Award NomineeA New York Public Library Top 10 Book of 2022An immersive, electrifying space-fantasy, Neon Yangs debut novel The Genesis of Misery is full of high-tech space battles and political machinations, starring a queer and diverse array of pilots, princesses, and prophetic heirs.This is Joan of Arc meets Gideon the Ninth with a touch of Pacific Rim thrown in as a treat. A mind-blowing rollercoaster ride of a space opera, propulsive and strange in the best way.Rebecca Roanhorse, New York Times bestselling authorIts a story you think you know: a young person hears the voice of an angel saying they have been chosen as a warrior to lead their people to victory in a holy war.But Misery Nomaki (she/they) knows they are a fraud.Raised on a remote moon colony, they dont believe in any kind of god. Their angel is a delusion, brought on by hereditary space exposure. Yet their survival banks on mastering the holy mech they are supposedly destined for, and convincing the Emperor of the Faithful that they are the real deal.The deeper they get into their charade, however, the more they start to doubt their convictions. What if this, all of it, is real?A reimagining of Joan of Arcs story given a space opera, giant robot twist, the Nullvoid Chronicles is a story about the nature of truth, the power of belief, and the interplay of both in the stories we tell ourselves.
