“Twinmaker took my breath away. A triumph of thrilling action and vivid
imagination.”-Alison Goodman, author of EON and EONA
“A mind-blowing adventure about what it means to be human, and what it means
to find ourselves.”-Scott Westerfeld, author of UGLIES and LEVIATHAN
“A gripping YA thriller, coming of age and love story that transports the
reader to a future that looks a whole lot better than it really is …
Highly Recommended.”-Garth Nix, author of SABRIEL
“Twinmaker asks smart questions without easy answers, and presents a future
so simultaneously wonderful and terrible you can only believe in it–and
maybe wish you could be there, too. A thrilling, existential head trip
worthy of my favorite anime, I couldn’t stop reading this book. More
importantly, I couldn’t stop thinking about it.”-Alaya Dawn Johnson, author
of THE SUMMER PRINCE
“In a time when every second book seems to be a dour dystopia TWINMAKER is a
breath of fresh air. Not just because it’s hugely fun, or because it’s so

possibilities. I loved it.”
“Williams marries accessibly explored moral ramifications of future
technologies-a hallmark of mature science fiction-with a strong, capable
teen heroine and heart-pounding action” -KIRKUS

Here’s another story set in the Twinmaker universe, written to celebrate the release of CRASH (now out in Australia). Thanks to Thomas Wilson and everyone at Seizure for publishing “Tailgate Fume” as part of their Flashers series. I’m very excited that it found such a wonderful home. Now, ordinarily I’d post a selection from the […]

In which I espouse my theory that matter transmitters are awesome – of course! Here’s a glimpse: “The first attempts on the life of the matter transmitter were made in the 1930s, thanks to the film serials Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. The trope survived, but it was only a delay […]
