You can listen for free or buy the audiobook. https://theauthorheist.carrd.co/ #Audiobook #Audiobooks #Podcast #Podcasts #Reading #Audible #FreeBooks #Free

Every month, we do this cool thing on QueerSciFi.com to support indie writers. We share 4 of their books with our readers for free, and then add those readers (only with permission) to the author lists. It's a great way to get some new reads, "meet" a few up and coming authors, and forge new connections. :)
This month's books are below. Grab 'em here (we send them out around the 3rd of next month):
