RED STAR HUSTLE / APPREHENSION is one of Lit Hub’s most anticipated science fiction books of 2025!

Lit Hub just dropped their list of the 33 most highly-anticipated science fiction fantasy / horror books of the rest of 2025, and I was super excited to see RED STAR HUSTLE / APPREHENSION on there! Here’s what they had to say:

Mary Robinette Kowal / Sam J. Miller, Apprehension / Red Star Hustle
S&S / Saga Press, October 21

I’m loving Saga’s decision to revive the old Ace Doubles format this year (following, it should be noted, in the footsteps of the fabulous Tenebrous Press Split Scream series—and, I suppose, Catherine Lacey’s The Möbius Book, although that’s kinda different)—the first was a Stephen Graham Jones double-header, then a Day/Night-themed Ellen Datlow-edited story collection, but this is where the rubber should meet the road for the format: two brand new novellas from absolute SF stars. I can’t wait to read them both, and to flip the book in-between! –DB
