Paperback. Zustand: Good. With this brilliant debut, Penner thoughtfully upends the tropes of postapocalyptic fiction -- Publishers Weekly Strange Labour is a powerful meditation on the meaning of humanity in a universe that is indifferent to our extinction, and a provocative re-imagining of many of the tropes and clich s that h…ave shaped the post-apocalyptic novel. Most people have deserted the cities and towns to work themselves to death in the construction of monumental earthworks. The only adults unaffected by this mysterious obsession are a dwindling population that live in the margins of a new society they cannot understand. Isolated, in an increasingly deserted landscape, living off the material remnants of the old order, trapped in antiquated habits and assumptions, they struggle to construct a meaningful life for themselves. Miranda, a young woman who travels across what had once been the West, meets Dave, who has peculiar theories about the apocalypse.

Molly McGhee, author of Jonathan Abernathy You Are KindThe empire on which the sun never sets has turned its ambitions toward a land where its never eve…n risen: Victorian Britain is colonizing Hell itself.The demons who once ran amok down there, torturing lost souls, were easy enough to subdue. The damned, left without tormentors, have been put to work on cotton and tobacco plantations. As for the colonists, it takes all sorts to stake a claim on the infernal frontier: theres MacTavish, the dissipated District Commissioner; the savvy spiritualist Penelope Hodgson-Huntley; the preachers-son-turned-engineer Elijah Biddle; a cartful of orphaned girls sent down as part of an immigration scheme; and a zealous missionary offering salvation to the living and the dead alike.Backed by the power of Britain at its globe-spanning peak, however, the great and good of the colony will not be content until they have plundered even the unconquered interior: Hell Undiminished. All thats needed is a pretext for taking up armsand when a series of lurid murders sends the lonely farms and towns of British Hell into a panic, war seems inevitable. Will Her Majestys colonial forces prove victorious, or will they be made, at last, to give the devil his due?Set when the Old Empire of sails, slavery, and spices was transforming into the New Imperialism of steam and scientific racism, Notes on a Colonial Situation in Hell is one-of-a-kind feat of the imagination. It is at once a raucous, biting satire of the ignorance and hubris that built our world; an epic quest into the darkest heart of darkness imaginable; and an epic as gripping as anything by Conrad, Forster, or Tolkien.
