“Sam. I've got news for you. Not every childhood trauma can be healed by finding the right penis."

“There are only two reasons that minions don’t kill you as soon as you are discovered. The first is that the ‘boss’ wants to do you himself, and the second is that he wants to gloat before he has his minions do it for him. Responsible evil bosses don’t do either of these things; if ever I found myself in the position of villainous boss, I was going to have standing orders to dispatch anyone poking around and then send me a report. A quarterly report. Why bother me with the minutiae of day to day minioning? I was busy planning my siege on the Fortress of Solitude. I may have spent some time thinking about this.”
― Artemis Olsen, Rune & Claw

“The good thing about science is that it's true whether or not you believe in it.”

“Brand’s my partner,” I said. “Not just a Companion. He comes with me.”
“Plus,” Brand said, “I hear all the cool bodyguards love to shut their clients in a strange room with a strange man. Extra points when zombies are involved.”
― K.D. Edwards, The Last Sun

“Brand grabbed the sides of my face. He stared in my eyes and said, firmly, “Rune of Sun House, I believe that you are meant for great things. I truly, truly do. Your story has barely begun. It is my honor to be along for what has been, and is, and will be one hell of a ride. So don’t leave me on the bench again. That’s all I wanted to say.”
― K.D. Edwards, The Last Sun

“The human world never figured out the phenomenal expense it took to create New Atlantis, or the unlikelihood that it would ever be possible again. To them, it looked as if we pulled our Gotham out of a cereal box. They saw their abandoned buildings turn into craters overnight, and assumed that that was the sort of thing we would always be capable of doing.
Not a bad rep to have.”
― K.D. Edwards, The Last Sun

Waves of possibility crashed on each other, bound by the insane certainty that everything could start. That everything could finally start.”
― K.D. Edwards, The Last Sun
