About The Book
The minds of five normal people merge in a beautiful, unnerving first contact story where the strangest thing humanity has to face is each other, from the critically acclaimed author of Sleeping Giants.
“I’m you now. We all are.”
When advertising executive Carole Veilleux loses it at Booker’s donut shop and bites Booker on the arm, it’s about the most interesting thing to happen in the small city of Marquette, Michigan, in years.
But that’s only the beginning of the story. Carole and Booker find their minds merging, in a collective that extends to include Carole’s husband Shivansh and local doctor Evelyn Schlapp. The four of them become the beginning of something larger and stranger than they could ever have imagined.

Raves and Reviews
“Original, mind-expanding, and surprising – The Many made me think, wonder, and want a better world.” —Aliya Whiteley, Clarke Award-nominated author of Skyward Inn
“From the first line, The Many sends us hurtling into a big idea, but our companions on this ride are characters we’ll come to know as intimately as we can know anyone. This moving, funny novel left me feeling something I wish I felt more often these days – faith in humanity.” —Kate Heartfield, Aurora Award-winning author of The Embroidered Book
“The Many is an absolute joy, building from a twisty thriller with unique and ambitious viewpoints to a conceptual work of stupendous scale. All at once it is a black romp and a fervent hope, told with an absurdist’s light touch even as it delves through the darkness.” —Ian Green, author of Extremophile
