This richly imagined journey into a dystopian future is at once cautionary and provocative, inviting us to heed the lessons of the Ancients.
—Dr. Robin Wall Kimmerer, New York Times bestselling author of Braiding Sweetgrass
In a sea of post-apocalyptic novels, John Larson’s The Ancients stands apart for the audacity of his world-building, the vibrant humanity of his imperiled characters, the stark, insistent drumbeat of his storytelling, and the ultimate hopefulness of his vision for the intertwined fates of our species and our planet.
—Hillary Jordan, New York Times bestselling author of Mudbound and When She Woke
This ambitious novel reaches far, far deeper than almost any post-apocalyptic tale to reframe the stakes of the climate crisis. This is a novel written by a deep soul, whose commitment to the planet, his community, and his family is on display in these pages. Larison’s knife-sharp prose cuts right to the bone. He is one of our best. A true literary and intellectual maverick.
—Nickolas Butler, author of Shotgun Lovesongs and Godspeed
This is a moving and expansive tale illuminating the emotional range of the human spirit. Larison’s lyrical writing will hook readers of plot-driven literary fiction.
—Starred Booklist Review
A reminder … that hope is essential for survival.
—The Boston Globe
