Christopher is an internationally recognized writer of speculative fiction, most recently as author of the novel Flight of the Chicxulub, a tale of outlaw Latinopunks which Kirkus Reviews describes as a "richly drawn world with its own complex culture and struggles. As the story bounces deftly from SF to action-oriented thrills and eventually a kind of transcendent mysticism, Flakus maintains a strong narrative voice and a clear vision, and shows deep care for these characters and their relationships along the way. The result satisfies all the expectations of the genre while feeling wholly original and exciting. Readers who enjoy exciting actioners set in unique but still recognizable futuristic settings will find a lot to like here."
In a future where Earth exiles its people to distant planets, Miriam, Ryu, Felix, and their clan survive on Xochipili as runners, smuggling Starflesh-a powerful, godlike plant-at the monks' illegal request.
