Thank you to everyone who came to my launch event at the Brattle Theatre, organized by the Harvard Book Store. R.F. Kuang and I had a great chat, and the audience asked wonderful questions. I left feeling energized.

A few more bits related to the book.

The Guardian had this to say about All That We See Or Seem: “Action-packed as well as thought-provoking, this is one of the best science-fiction books of the year.”

And this is from The Daily Mail: “But what really gives this book its propulsive force is the brain-blistering exploration of AI, and its potential for good or evil.”

I had a great time chatting with Andrew Limbong on NPR’s “All Things Considered”. Give it a listen or read the transcript.

Largehearted Boy published my playlist for Julia Z. I picked songs that resonate with the book’s themes and Julia’s journey, and I hope you enjoy this soundtrack to the book.

Here’s an excerpt of Kat Cleave’s narration of All That We See Or Seem. You can get the audiobook from your favorite vendor. Here’s the page on Simon & Schuster Audio, which links to various vendors.

As always, thank you so much for your continued support of my work!

Phil Hi Ken, may I asked where can buy a signed copy of your new book All that we see or seem, the US version? I saw signed UK version in some UK online bookstore. I am in Singapore and I will attend SWF2025, hope to see you there at the panel discussion.
