Read an excerpt from Flux by Jinwoo Chong
Flux by Jinwoo Chong is time-travel crime noir that will break your mind. The wild ride is written with pitch-perfect tension and Chong delivers on everything that is set up. The book left my jaw on the floor page after page and is one of the most fun times I’ve had reading a book. Period.
The story follows the lives of three individuals intersecting in mind-bending ways. There’s an 8-year-old whose mother dies in an accident. A 28-year-old who loses his job. A 48-year-old who is disconnected from his family. Their lives and stories weave in unexpected ways.
Buckle up for one wild ride that you won’t want to get off of.
Flux is out now. You can read an excerpt from the book below.

She blends science and history to get a better sense of what drives us. Is there a small wolf inside all of us? Through this cultural criticism, Berry smashes expectations for what a book can do.
Throughout Wolfish, Berry expertly dances through information without bogging the reader down. Her grasp on structure should be studied by all writers regardless of mode.
