"von Schlegell's Venusia (2005) is a richly imaginative, avant-garde portrayal of life on a terraformed Venus. Its successor's venue is a prison camp on Mercury circa 2150, where Eddie Ryan is doing time for his role in a bombing perpetrated by a revolutionary, post-Earth Irish army.... Von Schlegell's odd mixture of Joycean wordplay and jarring plot twists may not be to everyone's taste, but he excels at pushing speculative fiction's creative limits as far as they will go."--Carl Hays, Booklist

Available in fine bookstores and at amazon.

M.I.T.: "Mercury Station tells a compelling story, drawn through a labyrinth of future-history sci-fi, medieval hard fantasy, and cascading samplings of high and low culture."

SEMIOTEXT(E): "Mark von Schlegell's fiction scrambles the codes of traditional science fiction and fantasy with high literature and philosophy into a psychedelic weave of theory and pulp tradition."
