Inside is a man named Alex, and an extraordinary little girl who calls herself Artemis Darth Vader. There's far more to Art than meets the eye.

Reviews

This is the sci-fi romance adventure you never knew you needed. TJs characters are broken but they are so full of heart and hope that you will lose yourself entirely to their story -- Jennifer L. Armentrout, New York Times bestselling author of Fall of Ruin and Wrath

I loved it. It is like being wrapped up in a big gay blanket. Simply perfect

-- V. E. Schwab, author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue on The House in the Cerulean Sea
The House in the Cerulean Sea is a modern fairy tale about learning your true nature and what you love and will protect. Its a beautiful book -- Charlaine Harris, author of the Sookie Stackhouse series on The House in the Cerulean Sea
Full of faith in the goodness of people . . . It broke my heart with its unflinching understanding that grief never goes away, never empties, only settles into the room of your soul like a strange souvenir. And then it healed me in the next breath -- Cassandra Khaw, author of Nothing But Blackened Teeth on Under the Whispering Door
