“Revelation is a creepy, heartbreaking, yet ultimately inspiring novel. Unflinching and powerful social commentary wrapped in a terrific story.” -Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Rot and Ruin
“This stark yet richly layered narrative, the first in Munro’s anticipated Poppet Cycle series, is a study of privilege, persecution, and the power of love. A chillingly perceptive dystopia cementing Munro as an author of note. Revelation is a novel worthy of its title.” -Lee Murray, two-time Bram Stoker Award winner and author of Into the Ashes
“With this, the first book in her Poppet Cycle, Donna J. W. Munro has transcended the zombie genre to create something unique, strange, and disturbingly relevant.” -Lisa Morton, six-time Bram Stoker Award winner
In a dark future, people with money live in doomed cities and use the recently deceased as repurposed servants and workers called poppets. Ellie DesLoge is the teen heiress of the company that makes and distributes poppets–your basic reprogrammed flesh robot complete with training chips and kill switches. If Ellie does everything her Aunt Cordelia says, she’ll have a life of wealth and power. If she chooses to be what is planned for her, life will be perfect. Everything she ever dreamed. But something about her sweet poppet Thom goes against what Aunt Cordelia and tradition have taught her. Will she choose to believe what everyone knows is true or will she follow what her heart tells her about Thom? Her choice will change the world.
