Locus Mag’s Paula Guran Calls J.S. Breukelaar’s Collision a Must Read

We were so excited to find a wonderful review of J.S. Breukelaar’s COLLISION: STORIES in this month’s Locus Magazine. Iconic editor Paula Guran calls the collection a “must read,” so be sure you read the review and the book!

You may have encountered a story by J.S. Breukelaar here and there, or even her novels American Monster (2014) or Aletheia (2017). Whether her name is familiar or not, her debut collection, Collision: Stories, should be on your ‘‘must read’’ list. Breukelaar, an American living in Sydney, Australia, writes in a clean, incisive style with razor-sharp opening hooks, while blending the literary, the speculative, and the weird.
