In the first Amazing Tale of Antifascist Action, New York Times bestselling author Lilith Saintcrow serves up science fiction pulp in a North America fractured by drones, bioweapons, and ideology, giving us a heroine practically made out of violent resistance.
THE RUNNER
Just behind the front lines of a war they call “civil,” the shifter called Coyote is tough, fast, ugly—and known for taking jobs nobody else will. 
THE JOB
Marge’s sister is locked in a prison camp civilians shouldn’t know about, deep in enemy territory. Rescuing her will take a plan made of weapons-grade insanity.
THE TRICK
To get in, all Coyote has to do is get caught.
THE PAYOFF
None, unless the satisfaction of killing an old enemy counts. And maybe a few small bounties from murdering fascist clones…
RUN, COYOTE. RUN.

Praise for

Coyote Run

“Gritty shapeshifters, bloody revenge, and antifascist solidarity, told with darkly wry humor, raw action sequences, and a soupçon of unexpected romance.”  —Kate Elliott, author of Unconquerable Sun and Servant Mage 

Coyote Run is a gnarly, adrenaline-packed sprint of a tale, brimming with guts, grime, and deliciously bloody catharsis. If Fury Road had shifters, it would feel like Coyote Run.”  —Lauren Thoman, author of You Shouldn’t Be Here

“This is the kind of bad-ass pulp adventure that kept you up reading between the covers with a flashlight as a kid, but updated for grown-ass adults who want some 21st-century awesomeness. Inject more of this into my veins, please!”  —Tobias S. Buckell, author of the Xenowealth Series

“Coyote is a fantastic, grindhouse-level heroine and a freakin’ joy on every page. Absolute non-stop, ass-kicking fun!”  —Peter Clines, NYT bestselling author of The Broken Room

“Offensively good and immensely satisfying. Lilith Saintcrow packs more worldbuilding into single sentences than most people manage in entire books. A compelling mix of brutality and compassion, with just a twist of gallows humor as the finishing touch: exactly what one expects from Saintcrow, who never disappoints.”  —C.E. Murphy, author of Urban Shaman

“I loved this book! Emotionally satisfying and clever pulp sci-fi with kick-ass characters that are all very well fleshed out.”
—Brooke Binkowski, Debunker and Writer

Coyote Run is a wide-open balls-to-the-wall perfect blend of horror, pulp, and just plain wicked fun. Saintcrow’s Coyote comes off the page like a rocket to the face, and the antifascist action never lets up. You’ll read it in a day, maybe less. I know I did.” —T. Frohock, author of the Los Nefilim series

“Like Coyote, this novella never lets up and doesn’t blink first. Sentence after marvellous sentence, it had me wincing, cackling, and applauding in turns. This book goes like a lit fuse.” —Kate Heartfield, author of The Valkyrie

“If you’re fed up with unhinged bad guys, Lilith Saintcrow delivers kickass unhinged good guys—shapeshifting, sci-fi berserkers who love nothing better than feeding steel-toed boots to fascists. Pick it up, read it, and get inspired!” —Cherie Priest, author of Boneshaker

 “No punches pulled here: every gonzo scene is an amped-up, rocket-powered piledriver smashing straight into the slack-jawed face of fascism. They can run, but the little bitches can’t hide.” —Curtis C. Chen, award-winning author of the Kangaroo series­

“Lilith Saintcrow’s Coyote Run does what it says on the tin: A near future quasi-urban fantasy where the titular Coyote takes on fascists in a nearby state. The result is a balls-to-the-wall, pedal-beyond-the-metal-and-into-the-next-level novella that grabs the reader from the word go and does not let up to the finale. Coyote Run starts off with a crowd-pleasing bang and never relents. Come for the punching of fascists, stay for the strong characterization, rich worldbuilding and intense action beats.” —Paul “Princejvstin” Weimer, Hugo Award Winning Fan Writer and Consumer of Words, Scion of St. Paul, Minnesota

“Lilith Saintcrow delivers a high-octane kick-ass pulp romp adventure.  Coyote Run is a novella where all you have to do is: light fuse, turn pages, and BANG!” —R.R. Virdi, USA Today bestselling author of the Tales of Tremaine
