Lumen Reese

Writer of science fiction, fantasy, horror and contemporary fiction from Michigan.
I think a story should be entertaining, but should handle social and class issues in order to be an accurate portrayal of our world. I value honest resolution over shock-value, and happy endings wherever possible, especially for my LGBT characters. None of my books will ever use artificial intelligence, because AI is theft. You can find me on Instagram @ZoominLumen
Or follow me on Goodreads for announcements.

The Crocus Trilogy will continue in 2025 with Book Two: THE GRAVEDIGGER KNIGHT & THE SAILOR OF ENDLESS SEAS.

And the Honoré Sloane series will continue in 2026 with: TWO SPARROWS FOR A PENNY.
