""The Deep Sky is a beautiful tightly-wound mystery. It is both an intimate character portrait and a thriller."" Mary Robinette Kowal, winner of the Hugo, Nebula, and Locus Awards ""There are so many things to love about Yume Kitasei's debut, but I especially adored how real every moment felt: the politics of boarding school and our future world; the lapsed friendships and estranged parents; the guilt of surviving, of being chosen. In The Deep Sky, Kitasei puts us under the microscope not in judgment but with a fair and caring eye; she looks for the best in us."" C. L. Clark, author of The Unbroken ""One of the best debuts of the year."" Book Riot ""Smart and exhilarating…A study in belonging and how Asuka’s intersecting identities (Japanese-American, crew member, classmate, friend, daughter and woman) buttress her during the most important moments in her life."" BookPage ""The Deep Sky is a smart, emotionally mature, quick-paced climate fiction space whodunit that I already wanted to read again before I even finished it."" Associated Press ""Gripping, apocalyptic… Complete with sabotage, secrets, explosions, flashbacks, existential dread and, ultimately, hope, this is a winner."" Ms. Magazine ""There’s just so much to love about The Deep Sky...It’s a fast-paced read that invites readers to slow down and really think, an impressive feat for a debut."" Geekly, Inc. ""Evocative, engaging, and hard to forget, I really loved this novel."" Alex Segura, LA Times Book Prize-winning author of Secret Identity
