Prepare to launch into the darkest depths of deep space with one of the most visionary voices in modern fiction.! Join us online as we sit down with master storyteller Daniel Kraus, winner of the 2026 Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, to celebrate the release of his breathtaking new novel, The Sixth Nik. Deep into space, far past the triworld outposts, beyond range of the lethal trollbot internet, soars The Sickness: a ship woven from biomatter and capable of reacting to every need of its human crew. Sisilla, a nine-year-old cultist with a brain enhanced by arcane tech known as “niks,” has boarded to investigate the enigma of Fém—a plague-riddled planet that has abruptly gone rogue. Daniel Kraus is a Pulitzer Prize-winning, New York Times bestselling writer of TV, film and novels, including  Angel Down and Whalefall. Register now for this VIRTUAL author series program on Tuesday, September 8 @ 7:00 pm.
