From a powerful and "radiant" (Kassandra Montag, author of After the Flood ) new literary voice to be reckoned with, this collection will stay with you after turn the final page.

Reviews
"Some short story collections are treats to be consumed like little chocolates, with delight and frivolity. Other collections, rich like a multi-course meal at a Michelin-starred restaurant, are meant to be devoured. Island Rule by Katie M. Flynn is the latter . . . Brilliantly, eerily, and soundly, Flynn [contrasts] feelings of isolation and rejection while never staying in the territory of any one genre, but using genre as a tool to tell a grander story of humanity." --Shelf Awareness (starred review), "A wonderfully eerie collection, Island Rule haunts and delights. Flynn's writing is taught and teeming, making a world of bone mounds and monsters as alarmingly real as teenage angst and midlife crises. The creeping darkness of Island Rule revels in exploring darkness at the edges of our world, and what happens when we invite it in." --Erika Swyler, author of The Light from Other Stars, "This short-story collection mixes the mundane and the bizarre with an authority stemming from its concrete sense of place . . . the overall effect is appealingly weird, as if the uncanny valley took literary form. A compelling exercise in worldbuilding and genre blending that toggles among the recent past, present, and near future." --Kirkus Reviews "Flynn blends realism and fantasy for a diffuse collection that probes the limits of democracy." --Publishers Weekly
