 AIRLOCK | a trans led space adventure

OUT NOW from | Orca Books | comes with a study guide!

In this high-interest accessible novel for teen readers, nonbinary teen Brick must rescue the crew of the spaceship they snuck onto when it is taken over by pirates.

Brick, a young thief, is terrified of outer space. But they’re forced to escape Earth when a warrant goes out for their arrest.

​

There’s nothing left for them on the dusty, barren wasteland of Earth anyway. Brick stows away on a cargo ship headed for the moon.

 

They reluctantly allow a local teenage enforcer named Amar to tag along. But the ship ends up containing unusual cargo and the crew members may not be who they appear to be.

Suddenly the spaceship is taken over by pirates, who imprison the crew in the airlock. Brick and Amar come up with a plan to rescue the crew. The only problem is that, in order to succeed, Brick must venture out into the deep darkness of space.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

THEM Magazine
Blood Sport

Gritty, yet without the pitfalls of trauma porn, this novel has the touch shell of noir but a tender underbelly

KIRKUS 
 No One Left But You

 There’s a maturity and depth to the raw emotion and a hypersaturated intensity to the imagery. 

​

Poignant and  intoxicating.
