Reviews

It is clear from Our Shared Storm's narrative arcs and Hudson's conclusion that he tries to reserve some optimism for the future and the potential role that cli-fi can serve in helping others imagine not only possibilities but also the kinds of politics and large-scale social changes that might have to happen to get there. . . From our current moment, this seems like a distant possibility, but it is certainly a future worth aspiring to.-- "H-Net Reviews"

Andrew Dana Hudson's Our Shared Storm is a fascinating thought-experiment in imagining worlds to come. Through a set of common characters kaleidoscopically revealed, readers are granted perspectival narrative access to a skein of political, cultural, and philosophical views that, along with their attendant actions, will shape the planet for worse--or, perhaps, better.---Christopher Schaberg, author of Searching for the Anthropocene

Hudson has found a way to strike together all the various facets of our rapidly changing climate future, sparking stories that are by turns, and often all at once, ingenious, energetic, provocative, and soulful. He is the face of this new movement in science fiction, and we're lucky to have him.---Kim Stanley Robinson

Hudson's innovative and exciting publication is, simultaneously, a consideration of the relationship between climate fiction and climate policy, a highly readable and teachable set of climate stories, and a critical intervention in what climate fiction is capable of achieving in the 'real' world.---Adeline Johns-Putra, Professor of Literature, Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, China
