LYNX, Vol. 1 cover

Beyond the end of the world, the angels have claws…

What remains after the end of the world? For the last of humanity in a world of perpetual winter, the only way to survive is to adapt—but for Lynx Takuma, the past cannot be so easily left behind.

Lynx Takuma is standing still. As a bio-enhanced detective in New Borealis, one of the last habitable cities after worldwide climate disaster, Lynx knows what she’s meant to do: break up crime syndicates, track down rogue Qual technology, and keep the peace alongside her reckless-but-trusty partner Task and her crime-fighting talking cat Skua. But ever since Simone…

Well, she’s not thinking about Simone. Or about anything beyond getting through the next day, and the next, and the next…

Until, while on the trail of a series of grisly murders, Lynx sees something impossible that turns her world upside down—something that looks like an angel…

"An addictive cyberpunk noir....with offbeat characters and concepts, including talking animals, deadly celestial beings, bizarre body-horror monsters, and a winsome mortician. The fast-paced first volume sets up a slew of yet-to-be-resolved mysteries and promises more high-tech, high-tension drama to come." —Publisher's Weekly
"...a richly imagined world where ecological collapse and technological advancement have reshaped not only organic bodies but ethics and identity as well." —Library Journal
"The creative team deftly blends action and intrigue with some humor and plenty of cuteness from Lynx’s feline companion... Readers who enjoy Pluto and other dark detective mysteries will enjoy this too." —ALA Booklist
"An impressive, unique, and surprisingly compelling story..." —Screenrant
"A lesbian detective and her talking cat tackle a series of gory murders in a dystopian city laiden with grief and danger. Exciting and chilling!" —Maia Kobabe, author of Gender Queer
"Stylish, sleek, and smart! I could not put Lynx down, fully absorbed by the mysteries at the heart of the book. Lynx herself gives very little away and yet, every time she did it was emotionally devastating in the best possible way. If you've got a noir/cyberpunk itch that needs scratching, this is the book for you."—Rye Hickman, co-creator and artist of Buzzing and The Harrowing
