ABOUT DANE SULLIVAN

  Dane Sullivan’s snarky, subversive novels have been described as both disturbingly realistic and painfully funny, thanks to their cold wit. Raised deep in Appalachia, in what was then crowned “the most depressing county of America” he watched his parents toil long hours for little pay. By the time the toll of the rust belt sent his family packing for the affluent communities of the west coast, Dane had started a lifelong love affair with dystopian fiction, dystopian nonfiction, and strong bourbon.

An engineer by trade, Dane crafts bleak, familiar and cruel worlds with the care of a systems designer who intimately understands both soul crushing bureaucracies and the new powers technology is already granting them. He loves long walks in the woods, and one suspiciously specific government document. His sharp tongue is equal parts hilarious and unsetting. Each book will fill you with the exhilaration of watching a starship crash in slow motion and leave you with the crushing realization that it hasn’t happened yet, and you’re still onboard.
