Andrew DeYoung is a writer, editor, and dad living in Saint Paul, Minnesota. The Exo Project is his first novel. andrewdeyoung.com.
"The Exo Project has a...fantastical premise that works very well
in DeYoung's execution. (He) does an excellent job of creating a
fully-realized society...and he allows the relationship between
Kiva and Matthew to develop naturally....the book's greatest
strength is its willingness to take on such issues as climate
change, bigotry, sexism, violence, and responsibility for the
common good." -VOYA
"The world building (in the Exo Project) is impeccable, with
backstories fully developed...that show the folly and weaknesses of
humanity even across the galaxies. The complexities of warring
loyalties are played out through the accessible perspectives of
Matthew and Kiva...This will be a treat for sci-fi fans looking to
settle into a lengthy novel and really explore a futuristic plot."
- The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"First-time author DeYoung offers straightforward yet effective
storytelling, which makes for a refreshing change from science
fiction with convoluted and multilevel plots.... this is an
enjoyable read with abundant STEM connections." -Booklist
"This debut novel will give science fiction readers a fresh take on
the genre. Deyoung... presents a great science fiction introduction
for those reluctant to the genre." -School Library Connection
