Praise for Seven Devils
“A thrilling ride from two of the most exciting authors in the
genre.” —Gareth L. Powell, BSFA award-winning author of Embers of
War
"More gripping than The Expanse." —Charles Stross, award-winning
author of The Laundry Files
“I was promised Mad Max: Fury Road in space—I got that and so much
more. Seven Devils is an explosive new addition to the space opera
genre. May and Lam had me from the first severed finger! This is a
book you are not going to want to miss and the start of a series
that promises to be a wild ride.” —K. B. Wagers, author
of the Farian War trilogy
"Lam and May bring a multivoice story from a group of diverse,
courageous females attempting to save themselves and their galaxy.
Backstories and present-day actions are built into an alien
setting, well-rounded characters, and an action-filled plot with
themes of colonization, military manipulation, and conditioning."
—Library Journal
“This first collaboration from Lam (Goldilocks) and May (The
Falconer) revels in the frenetic energy of its girl power–infused,
space operatic premise.” —Publishers Weekly
"The first book in a duology is a witty, fast-paced, feminist space
opera." —Booklist
"Lam and May have looked ahead to a future where women serve
equally, are just as strong and capable in combat as men without
falling into the typical tropes of heartless assassin or distressed
damsel awakening to her power. Each of the characters
in Seven Devils is distinct with her own character,
personality, backstory, and soul." —The Roarbots
"Heists, secrets, horrible sibling relationships, and terrible
revelations abound. It’s a lot like Star Wars, but far more
murdery." —Tor.com
