[On Users] Full of the unique absurdity, dark humor, and character insight that make Colin Winnette's work such a joy
Jeff Vandermeer
[On Users] Winnette captures the anxiety and paranoia of the current age in a tale that will have you ripping through the pages. Haunting, clever, witty, terrifying, moving; reader, I loved it
Andrew Sean Greer, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of LESS
[On Users] In gripping prose and disturbingly sharp focus, Colin Winnette presents us with a not-too-distant future where technology and selfhood have become completely entangled
Hernan Diaz, Pullitzer Prize-winning author of TRUST
[On Users] Told in refreshingly unadorned prose that lets Winnette's characters and ideas shine . . . a timeless and moving story
Jessamine Chan, The New York Times Book Review
Wonderkin grabs hold of you and never lets go. Big-hearted, unflinching, and wholly original, this is a book that fearlessly plumbs the depths of human consciousness and reminds us how important we are to each other. No one writes like Colin Winnette
Kate Folk, author of SKY DADDY
As suspenseful, gripping, and immersive as it is humane and compassionate, Wonderkin is a powerful novel of fatherhood for our near-dystopian era of AI agents and hyperreality. Readers will fall in love with Charles and his sons as they navigate the hazy boundaries between the human and the machine, searching for new forms of connection in a perilous, alienating world. A stunning work of imagination
Bruce Holsinger, bestselling author of CULPABILITY
An ingenious, moving, hypnotic, and perfectly executed novel about love in a time of technological ferment. Colin Winnette’s speculative world feels more real than real life itself
Karan Mahajan, author of THE COMPLEX
Wonderkin is an absolute marvel of a novel - speculative and intimate, emotionally generous and intellectually alive. I couldn't stop turning this book's pages until I reached the last one, and I haven't been able to stop thinking about it since
Isaac Fitzgerald, New York Times bestselling author of AMERICAN RAMBLER
