"Even in the most Lovecraftian, rich descriptions of arcane deities and strange beings, the prose's focus is upon how it might feel to emotionally live within such a world. [...] Thoroughly recommended."

Greg Buchanan, author of Sixteen Horses and writer for No Man's Sky

"Devotionalia manages to pull off a feat that is difficult for any artwork in any form: It's emotionally powerful and yet ambiguous enough to allow for multiple interpretations."

Mike Spivey, author of A Beauty Cold and Austere

"Music, darkness, melancholy, the unknowably alien, and the space to absorb them. That’s the mood which Devotionalia is after, and it skewers it like a moth on a specimen-board."

Sam Kabo Ashwell, These Heterogenous Tasks
