Twinmaker
“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

I would love to live in a world where anyone could look any age they liked. It’s my firm belief that humanity would, on the whole, benefit by being liberated from the involuntary creep of wrinkles, sagging and spots that comes with advancing years, not to mention greying, unwanted, or entirely absent hair. Note: I’m […]

This story was originally a bonus in the YA Scavenger Hunt, which was kinda like the game “Guess” in Twinmaker but without the machines that could take us anywhere at a simple command. It’s a creepy conspiracy-style urban myth about boy bands and the birth of d-mat. Enjoy! “Encore” Pop stars are figures of […]

…and the entire series! The review goes live today. Here’s one of many excellent paragraphs: “…never stops dishing out the twists and turns that keep his great overarching plot moving at near breakneck pace. (The shockers in Hollow Girl are unreal!) The cast of characters is diverse and interesting and Clair is the right balance […]
