A TIME TRAVEL TALE. A SLOW BURNING LOVE STORY. AN INGENIOUS EXPLORATION OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN.

This first thrilling installment of the award-winning Heartless Trilogy will delight lovers of sci-fi, time travel, and romantic adventures. It’s perfect for fans of Becky Chambers, Hugh Howey, Naomi Alderman, and Kaliane Bradley.

Earth: 2049. Scientist and BASE jump enthusiast Quinn Buyers would rather be studying clouds than getting ready for her wedding. When a devastating climate tragedy strikes, she makes a narrow escape, only to be held responsible for the catastrophe. With powerful enemies threatening everything she holds dear, including her famous scientist mother, she embarks on a dangerous quest for answers that takes her across the globe.

On her journey, she assembles an unlikely crew of allies, including a clever AI meerkat and a fierce, quick-witted guerrilla fighter. But her travels through wondrous metropolises and ‘cool reef’ climate cities reveal a deceptive reality. With allies turning into traitors and the Transhumans lurking in the background, can her unique set of combat skills save her?

As the stakes heighten, her undeniable attraction to a mysterious cyborg, who holds secrets about her past, heats up.

Set in the not-too-distant future, Gravity Is Heartless offers a thought-provoking look at love, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit facing climate catastrophe.
