Amos the Amazing is being released in English, in boutique format, in ebook and paperback by new imprint More Publishing. More Publishing is an American-Canadian collaboration dedicated to 'developing and promoting English voices in China.' It will be released on all major platforms on October 31, 2022.
This release will share Amos The Amazing in its native language to the English-speaking world prior to the commercial Chinese release slated for 2023 by Chongqing Publishing Group, the publishing giant that brought the world The Three Body Problem, the largest Chinese Sci-Fi sensation since the Qing dynasty that George R.R. Martin called “A breakthrough book . . . a unique blend of scientific and philosophical speculation.”
Amos The Amazing is "a modern Solarpunk fairytale, just in time to help avert an apocalypse of apoplectic apathy," and will be available in eBook and paperback, with hardcover and audiobooks editions slated for the winter holidays.
What happens when you take an almost-famous D&D dungeon master, with a history of headlining major music festivals and breathing fire in the circus, and send him to a mountain in China to sit alone with his own thoughts? A new epic solarpunk fantasy novel, somewhere between "Chinese Harry Potter" and "an especially psychedelic Alice in Wonderland."
"Amos the Amazing is different from the stories I have seen before. It makes me feel the unique charm of a new narrative story that blends Eastern and Western cultures in a mysterious world of whimsy full of wild imagination and unforgettable characters, and I believe that children will love it." - 停云 Xiao Hua Hua, Senior MG/YA Editor, Chongqing Publishing Group, Publisher of Massive Sci-Fi Bestseller The Three-Body Problem.
From the author of a tweet that Mark Hamill liked comes a book which R.A. Salvatore wished "Congratulations" on finishing & Brandon Sanderson sent his "deep apologies for being unable to provide a jacket quote at this time because his work schedule is busier than ever, making it extremely difficult to find the time he would want to dedicate to your book," comes a modern solarpunk fairytale, just in time to help avert an apocalypse of apoplectic apathy. More Publishing announced it is launching Amos the Amazing (a new Solarpunk fantasy novel), a novel aimed at book lovers around the world looking for a healthy dose of optimism in their fantasy.
In 2038, in the SOLARPUNK futuristic city of Chongqing, a story gets told that sets off a chain reaction that threatens our world and the entire multiverse. This is the story of that story.
The world’s spiciest ice cream, a trip to Chongqing’s rural countryside, & a strange collection of curious belongings begin this unforgettable tale that mixes solarpunk science fiction and high fantasy for a thrilling modern fairytale about a boy who must risk his soul to chase a 9-tail fox into the dreamlands for the adventure of a lifetime and the chance to save his family.
A new solarpunk novel couldn't come at a better time. SOLARPUNK literature envisions how the future will look when we succeed in solving major contemporary challenges by focusing on sustainability, a harmonious relationship between humans and the natural world, tackling and solving issues of climate change and pollution with green solutions, and community-driven efforts. Punk is a rebel’s cause, and what could be more rebellious in 2022 than being optimistic?
“Amos the Amazing is a bedazzling and delightful adventure through a world of wonderment and imagination. The world Jorah Kai has created is full of colorful characters, layered historical depth, and cultural splendor; it rivals Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter in complexity and creativity while maintaining specificity and believability—a recipe for pure literary amazement! This book is a wordsmith’s wonderland, a poet’s playground, and a linguist’s luxury cruise liner that weaves a love for everything Chongqing into a tale that is sure to become an international classic. I already can’t wait to read the next installment in the series. Keep them coming, Jorah Kai!,” said Garrett H Jones, Editor and Publisher of Amos the Amazing.
