The Sleep of Reason

"A near-perfect blend of implacable horror, gallows humor, and ecological apocalypse." — Peter Watts, author of Blindsight
What does magic want?
When Vasai Singh resurrected drowned Mumbai and raised it into the clouds, the world reacted with awe and wonder — and no small amount of fear. As with the climate crisis believed to have caused the Cascade, resurgent magic proved lucky for some, a disaster for many others, and a source of hope and dread for everyone else.
A generation has passed since the Cascade transformed the world, smashing the tectonic plates of the political landscape and infesting the wilderness with demons and shriekgrass.
In Ottawa, a scandal-plagued government clings to power, kept afloat by the manipulations of its precognitive political rainman, Ian Mallory. But when his predictions signal only catastrophe ahead, the magic-loathing photojournalist Tobias Fletcher, land rights activist Jonah Augustine, his ex-wife, climate scientist Blythe Augustine, and emoji-spell wielding intern Sujay Krishnamurthy must overcome ideology and bureaucracy to save a future from a present whose agenda spells only doom.
Set in a terrifying but all-too believable near future and leavened with a dry wit, Rachel A. Rosen's debut novel Cascade features a cast of fully-realized characters drawn into conflict with each other as they each strive to do the right thing.
But who can know what the right thing is, when every choice leads to disaster?
