Curtis oozes charm and humour in this pacey debut, which will be devoured by fans of Fallout and Firefly' TAMSYN MUIR 'I'm officially a member of the Grace Curtis fan club!' AMIE KAUFMAN 'A real treat' MAX GLADSTONE A heartfelt queer romance in a high noon standoff with Earth's uncertain future, full of love, loss, and laser guns. Perfect for fans of Becky Chambers and Mary Robinette Kowal. In the distant future, climate change has reduced Earth to a hard-scrabble wasteland. Saints and sinners, lawmakers and sheriffs, gunslingers and horse thieves abound. Folk are as diverse and divided as they've ever been - except in their shared suspicions when a stranger comes to town. One night a ship falls from the sky, bringing the planet's first visitor in three hundred years. She's armed, she's scared . . . and she's looking for someone. 'Delightfully inventive' KATE DYLAN
'Be prepared to devour this book in one sitting' BETH REVIS READERS LOVE GRACE CURTIS 'I was hooked from the start. I devoured this incredible book in two sittings and there were so many things I enjoyed about it' ★★★★★ 'Simply terrific!' ★★★★★ 'I absolutely adored Frontier - it's rare that a book of two halves is equally wonderful in both, but I was utterly engrossed right the way through. I loved the Western-styled atmosphere of the first half, and the unspooling story (with grand world-building) of the second' ★★★★★ 'This book was such a joy to read and I could barely put it down!' ★★★★★ 'This is a very clever, very fun and exciting book and one that I will definitely buy' ★★★★★
