Marge's sister is locked in a prison camp civilians shouldn't know about, deep in enemy territory. Rescuing her will take a plan made of weapons-grade insanity.

RUN, COYOTE. RUN.
"Gritty shapeshifters, bloody revenge, and antifascist solidarity, told with darkly wry humor, raw action sequences, and a soupΓ§on of unexpected romance." -Kate Elliott, author of Unconquerable Sun and Servant Mage
"Coyote Run is a gnarly, adrenaline-packed sprint of a tale, brimming with guts, grime, and deliciously bloody catharsis. If Fury Road had shifters, it would feel like Coyote Run." -Lauren Thoman, author of You Shouldn't Be Here
"This is the kind of bad-ass pulp adventure that kept you up reading between the covers with a flashlight as a kid, but updated for grown-ass adults who want some 21st-century awesomeness. Inject more of this into my veins, please!" -Tobias S. Buckell, author of the Xenowealth Series
"Coyote is a fantastic, grindhouse-level heroine and a freakin' joy on every page. Absolute non-stop, ass-kicking fun!" -Peter Clines, NYT bestselling author of The Broken Room
"Offensively good and immensely satisfying. Lilith Saintcrow packs more worldbuilding into single sentences than most people manage in entire books. A compelling mix of brutality and compassion, with just a twist of gallows humor as the finishing touch: exactly what one expects from Saintcrow, who never disappoints." -C.E. Murphy, author of Urban Shaman
"Coyote Run is a wide-open balls-to-the-wall perfect blend of horror, pulp, and just plain wicked fun." -T. Frohock, author of the Los Nefilim series
"Like Coyote, this novella never lets up and doesn't blink first. Sentence after marvellous sentence, it had me wincing, cackling, and applauding in turns. This book goes like a lit fuse." -Kate Heartfield, author of The Valkyrie
"If you're fed up with unhinged bad guys, Lilith Saintcrow delivers kickass unhinged good guys-shapeshifting, sci-fi berserkers who love nothing better than feeding steel-toed boots to fascists." -Cherie Priest, author of Boneshaker
"No punches pulled here: every gonzo scene is an amped-up, rocket-powered piledriver smashing straight into the slack-jawed face of fascism. They can run, but the little bitches can't hide." -Curtis C. Chen, award-winning author of the Kangaroo series-
Lilith Saintcrow lives in the Pacific Northwest with her children, dog, cat, and a feral library.
