Here, Sky Memoriam prepares to assume the role of memory keeper, sole relator of the long-forgotten histories of the Old World. But Sky is in for a shock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen a ship from somewhere out in space lands in the survivors' clearing, its wisecracking AI interface, Box, quickly announces its intention to integrate Sky into what the visitor insists is the \u003ci\u003etrue\u003c\/i\u003e reality. In order to withstand the forthcoming eldritch horrors--so soul-rippingly incomprehensible there are no words to describe them--it seems assimilation is essential. But creature-combat training aside, Sky's greatest task will be making sense of everything the snarky bot has to impart about limitless imagination, the endless infinity of other worlds, and the dangers on this one. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeing torn between the wasteland Sky and the plucky village folk call home and the infinite multiverse proffered by Box is enough to drive anyone insane. But as our hero soon discovers--and as weird as it sounds--madness itself may be the key to surviving this wild ride.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAt once violent, funny, and hopeful, \u003ci\u003eShades of Forever\u003c\/i\u003e is a reality-shattering, mind-melting slice of dystopian fiction from author, activist, and former NFL punter Chris Kluwe.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Chris Kluwe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Podium Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.95d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798347018321\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/15\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eChris Kluwe\u003c\/b\u003e is a former NFL player, who set multiple records for the Minnesota Vikings; a fierce social justice advocate; and the author of \u003ci\u003eShades of Forever\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eOtaku\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eBeautifully Unique Sparkleponies\u003c\/i\u003e.
