'I promise that you have never read a book like Canon. It's a scorchingly brilliant, wildly funny, and deeply moving epic. I loved it so much' John GreenThis is a story of two prophets.Yara has been chosen by God to slay the ruthless leader of the army of Bad Guys. Cast out by their family and reeling from a destructive relationship, Yara has never felt weaker; but with nothing to lose, they reluctantly strike a deal and Yara embarks on a perilous odyssey designed to prepare them for the daunting mission ahead.Meanwhile Adrena, a disillusioned prophet with a terrifying secret power, is determined to become the hero of this story. Feeling snubbed, and desperate to win back the glory of God's approval and the promise of heaven, Adrena must first persuade the leader of the army of Good Guys that her plan is God's will.Their parallel journeys unfold in a series of unforgettable adventures as they encounter incredible characters, and confront the transformative revelations of love, death and destiny. Funny, clever, sacred and subversive, Canon is an intensely captivating, irreverent epic from a singularly brilliant new voice in fiction. 'I didn't know how both funny and epic a novel could be . . . a page turner, and a profound meditation on the meaning of this human journey . . . thoroughly hilarious, and tender, and beautiful' Tommy Orange 'Canon filled me with overwhelming joy, joy that such an extraordinary story exists' Karen Russell'The funniest, most immersive book I have read in such a long time . . . Truly original, brimming with humour, beauty, heartbreak, magic, and sharp language that will strike you deep down in your soul' Danez Smith'I keep staring at the words I've written to try and describe this novel . . . but none of them really capture its unique brand of magic or Lewis' singular voice. Perhaps it's hard to find the language because that's what Canon does: gives us new language' Carmen Maria Machado
