In a time of increased literary censorship in my home country, I elected not to print content warnings in the final hardcover of BETWEEN SUN & SHADOW to avoid providing ammunition for ill-intended suppression of queer stories for youth.
(I also think many of them sound scarier out of context than they actually are in the narrative. But for any readers who might be sensitive to specific content and prefer to know in advance, this list is for you.)
CONTENT WARNINGS: depictions and/or mentions of fantasy weaponry and violence; decapitation; biological experimentation; bodily mutation; amputation; medical examinations, procedures, and injections; mentions of infertility/pregnancy; captivity; radiation exposure; homophobia; economic disparity; tyrannical government; warfare and its consequences; vomiting; romantic encounters; and swearing.
