ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I have to start off by thanking my publicist, Alexis Saarela. Not only because she is a publicity wiz, which she is, but also because for two whole books I’ve forgotten to thank her. So thank you, Alexis, and I apologize for being such a huge butt.

Thank you to my agent, Adriann Ranta, for being the best advocate a writer could ask for. She also made sure this book got a much better title than the one I had originally planned.

Melissa Frain … what can I say? If there’s any downside to having her as an editor, it might be that I’m becoming completely dependent on her expertise. Something weird? And it don’t look good? Who’m I gonna call? Mel. Duh. She’ll see it in an instant. (I apologize for the Ghostbusters reference. I miss writing those.) So thank you, Mel!

Thank you to the lovely and talented novelists Sara Bennett Wealer and Daisy Whitney. Without Sara this book would be firmly lodged in 1985, technology-wise. Daisy, thank you for your focus and fixing the ending!

Art director Seth Lerner, thanks for another striking cover. The entire team at Tor is incredible, and deserves undying gratitude.

I feel like I should thank Homer, but he might not have even existed. Still, The Iliad and The Odyssey were badass. So thanks for those, Homer, or the multiple people who actually wrote them.

As usual, thanks to Ryan VanderVenter, Missy Goldsmith, and Susan Murray, who continue to read everything I write even though they’re very busy and are probably pretty annoyed at this point. Thanks to Dan and Kristin, for support and excellent catson-watching. And of course, Dylan Zoerb, for luck.
