I’m really starting to think that there might be something seriously wrong with certain Russians. This video just doesn’t seem sane.

He was “busting a move”!

Since the break up of the Soviet Union, it just isn’t the same.

Sigh.

"Ryan Oakley kicks all kinds of butt. This is the story Philip K. Dick would have written if he'd lived to today: over-the-top, incisively satirical, and packing a major wallop. The prose sings even as the story makes you squirm; underneath all the slickness and sickness there's a passionate human heart, beating so damn fast it warps space. Oakley is a supernova about to blow – a major new talent ready to burst on the scene – and with this, his first novel, he'll light up the entire sky."

-- Robert J. Sawyer
Hugo Award-winning author of HOMINDS
Nebula Award-winning author of THE TERMINAL EXPERIMENT

"Reading Ryan Oakley's writing is like being lit-jacked. Once Oakley's forty-five caliber prose is aimed between your eyes, you'll never forget it."

--Minister Faust
Phillip K. Dick Prize Shortlisted author of THE COYOTE KINGS OF THE SPACE-AGE BACHELOR PAD
The Carl Brandon Society Kindred Award, Special Citation (Runner Up) Phillip K. Dick Award author of FROM THE NOTEBOOKS OF DR. BRAIN

"Oakley isn't so much concerned with what science fiction has been, but rather where it can go. And, unlike most of his contemporaries, he doesn't just write from his head, but from his gut. His work somehow manages to be both unsettling and deeply absorbing."

--Jeff Lemire
Eisner-nominated Graphic novelist of the ESSEX COUNTY TRILOGY,
THE NOBODY,
SWEET TOOTH from Vertigo.
THE ATOM and the upcoming SUPERBOY series for DC Comics

"So here’s what I hope for you – I hope you do meet Peter Watts at a Con sometime soon. Because you’ll then be placed in the acutely embarrassing position of having to actually face, in civilised company, a smart, sincere and eminently likeable man of great personal integrity, whom you’ve chosen to call “motherfucker” for no other reason than you think he’s crossed some illusory ideological line in your own pretty little head."

--Richard Morgan

AUTHOR

"A frail and wraithlike thing — imagine a twig in a suit and tie."
