The Glass Garden
The Glass Garden
“A sensual, despairing, beautiful hallucination.”
—Greg Rucka, writer of Lazarus
Dr. Therese Blake is a homebody archaeologist devoted to the history of planet Earth. But when her sister Lissy makes a stunning discovery near an abandoned colony on a distant exoplanet, the sisters team up to discover its secrets.
Eerie, luminescent images cover the walls of an underground cavern. The glass garden looks like a payday to Lissy, who’s been struggling to turn a profit to keep her salvage crew fed and paid. Therese, however, insists on careful academic procedure. She can’t figure it out: Is the anomaly an artificial creation–or a living organism?
As the anomaly’s mystery draws the sisters into an obsessive orbit, it turns out neither greed nor science can offer protection from its relentless gravity.

Praise for The Glass Garden
“[The Glass Garden]'s nothing short of mesmerising.”
—Alex Woodroe, editor and cofounder of Tenebrous Press, author of Whisperwood
“With her whip-smart prose and pitch-perfect dialogue, Lévai had me firmly on her hook from the book’s opening lines. And the hook only sank deeper with every unsettling page thereafter.”
—George Ranson
"Beautiful, lush botanic space horror! Sublime, inexplicable terror! Seriously, read Jessica Lévai's The Glass Garden: it left me with a sense of wonder and terror unlike any other book I've read this year.”
—Charlie Allison, author of No Harmless Power: The Life and Times of the Ukrainian Anarchist Nestor Makhno
