Rachel A. Rosen

Author and troublemaker in Tkaronto (Toronto) in the country currently known as Canada. My first book, Cascade (The Sleep of Reason Book 1), was published by The BumblePuppy Press in 2022, and with Zilla Novikov, I'm the co-author of The Sad Bastard Cookbook: Food You Can Make So You Don’t Die. I'm also a teacher, graphic designer, and personal assistant to two cats.

Cascade (The Sleep of Reason Book 1)

A stone-cold bummer of an eco-fantasy about Canadian politics, wizards, and eldritch abominations. This is the universal online link to buy; if you prefer to get it direct from the publisher, keep scrolling down.

Blight (The Sleep of Reason Book 2)

Three years after the events of Cascade, a scrappy band of rebels organizes for a revolution in the face of demons, tyranny, and climate chaos. This is the universal link to buy it.
