Expect giant robots, explosive battles and lots and lots of feelings in this queer space opera from Alex White.

In this wide-screen space opera, humanity has met its match. An alien race of enormous robotic AI have destroyed most of humanity's outposts. But, on the eve of the Earth's destruction, at a goodbye party thrown by nonbinary rock star Ardent Violet, a young man makes one last desperate attempt to reach out and convinces one of humanity's enemies to switch sides. Now, earth just might have a chance to survive...

Critic Reviews

"Evangelion by way of David Bowie—visceral, big-hearted, and ready to rock your world." (Emily Skrutskie, author of Bonds of Brass)

"August Kitko is a wild ride that starts with the end of the world and only gets better from there." (K.B. Wagers)

"Emotionally complex and mind-blisteringly weird, this novel kept surprising me at every turn. It's like a beautifully-orchestrated disco space battle, and I never wanted it to end." (Annalee Newitz, Lambda Award winning author of Autonomous)
