Seattle-based sponsor Orson's Publishing is a small-press that puts out "gutsy books for gutsy readers."

Like Wounded Tongue — this novel by Garrett Dennert takes place in a future world without electricity, a total blackout. Masked tribes war over pockets of the new world.

A middle aged-scavenger in Waco, Texas meet Vitri, a hearing-impaired orphan. They agree to travel east together, into the darkness of their world.
