“You’re going to love Nyx … she makes Han Solo look like a Boy Scout.”
—io9
Ex-government assassin turned bounty-hunter Nyx is good at solving other people’s problems. Her favorite problem-solving solution is punching people in the face. Then maybe chopping off some heads. Hey—it’s a living.
Nyx’s disreputable reputation has been well earned. After all, she’s trying to navigate an apocalyptic world full of giant bugs, contaminated deserts, scheming magicians, and a centuries-long war that’s consuming her future. Managing her ragtag squad of misfits has required a lot of morally-gray choices. Every new job is another day alive. Every new mission is another step toward changing a hellish future—but only if she can survive.
APOCALYPSE NYX is the must-have collection of Kameron Hurley’s five newest Nyx adventures.
“Nyx is back and just as good as ever. In this new collection of five novellas, Kameron Hurley serves up courses of crunchy action and intrigue, layered with tender character moments that bring real depth to this intense, unique world.”
—JY Yang, author of The Black Tides of Heaven and The Red Threads of Fortune
“The plots are taut, thrilling, gritty, violent, profane, magical—everything Hurley’s readers expect … Hurley has created one of the most engrossing environments in modern sf.”
