“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
smart, but because behind its vision of a world in which distance has been
eliminated by matter transportation lies a book urgently engaged with the
ways social media and technology are transforming us, and unafraid of their
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
In the excitement of blog touring, it’s easy to forget that I’m actually kinda really touring at the moment, sadly without d-mat to make it both quicker and easier on my creaky old bones. If you’re in the US, here’s where I’ll be this week: Tuesday: Teen Author Reading Night at the New York Public […]
In which I rant about the beauty myth and how it relates to Twinmaker: “Now, I’ve got nothing against beautiful people. Some of my best friends are beautiful people. I’m not a beautiful person, but that’s okay. I can live with it–as long as someone isn’t shoving the message down my throat that if I’m […]
Thanks, Amber of Mile Long Bookshelf for first featuring this story. Did you hear the one about the haunted d-mat booth? It was in China, I think. There was this girl, and she was gay. Her parents didn’t like it, so she was planning to run away with her girlfriend and start a new life […]
Michelle Auricht at Novels on the Run is the latest to kindly feature Twinmaker: Jump on her blog, with an interview, a review, and a mini-glossary. “It might be a bit creepy if I had a book girlfriend from a YA novel because she’d be less than half my age! But when I was a […]
“Imagine a machine that can move you from place to place. Not a plane or a car, but a booth you step into. You tell the machine where you want to go. It takes you there. To you, it seems like no time at all has passed. To everyone else, maybe a minute or two. […]
