So there are still tons of pieces trickling in here for The Stars are Legion WORLD TOUR. I’ve booked a couple more podcasts, I have a couple more articles set to come out in March, but here’s the bulk of what ran during release month, in case you missed it.
I’m very proud of a lot of these pieces. As you can see, this isn’t quite as much as I usually do, but frankly, I have a book due in four weeks, and I simply ran out of time (I cancelled some articles). First week sales are also strong, so I didn’t feel as guilty about bowing out. I may regret that later, but as you can see from the second section, as this point readers are out there picking up the banner, so I can get back to work on new words. This is what I get for not thinking ahead with pushing out my book deadlines….
Anyway, enjoy!

And here’s what some other folks had to say about The Stars are Legion this month:
- “The Stars are Legion is a masterwork”
- “Bizarrely original space opera”
- “Kameron Hurley has done it. She’s written a true space opera with no men in it.”
- “one of the most unusual and powerfully disturbing space operas we’re likely to see this year.”
- “Provocative character and riveting action”
- “It’s a fast and intense read that sucks you in pretty quickly”
- “A stunning redefinition of space opera filled with high action and adventure.”
- “I will now discuss the book, and also apply cold, hard physics to the scary, squishy stuff. Wish me luck.”
- “This space opera will remain with you for a long, long time”
- “It’s weird and gross and doesn’t pull its punches.”
- ““The Stars Are Legion” cements Hurley’s reputation as a writer of great accomplishment.”

- “Interesting, clever, and something very different”
AND NOW I WILL DISAPPEAR INTO THE NIGHT
Tomorrow is March 1st, and I have a book due April 3rd, so if you are a writer, you can guess my mental state right now (I also have a Patreon story due tonight! ha ha). As noted, we still have some other pieces set to run: in particular in Writer’s Digest, Huffington Post, and Drinks with Reads, plus two more podcasts scheduled, and I’ll share those as they go live. But for now, I need to keep my head down and keep my agent happy and turn in some more pages.
My goal is to be scarce around the interwebs and hit up a cabin in the woods retreat week after next, because ye gods does this book need it.
Also, rereading this a lot. ::whistles innocently::
