Vellum

"In Vellum-a monstrously brilliant and often hilarious novel of mad Irishmen, bad angels, femmes fatales, and demons-we are presented with the tale of a war occurring throughout the breadth and depth of time and space. Hal Duncan has, at the very least, created the Guernica of science fiction." -Lucius Shepard, author of A Handbook of American Prayer

"A mind-blowing read that's genuinely unlike anything you've ever read before . . . Vellum has expanded fantasy's limits like nothing published in years." -SFX (five-star "must-read" review) "Duncan's writing is fluent and powerful. He possesses an imagination capable of both conjuring worlds and capturing the intricacies of moments. Vellum is more than a novel; it's a vision." -Jeffrey Ford, author of The Girl in the Glass

"A remarkably ambitious debut novel. For lovers of innovative fantasy, it's a must-read." -Interzone

"Vellum is a revelation-the opening gambit in the career of a mind-blowing colossal talent whose impact will be felt for decades." -Jeff VanderMeer, author of City of Saints and Madmen
