​”New York Times top-selling YA science fiction writer Amie Kaufman is renowned for multi-textual collaborations that take readers off-piste. In Illuminae, created with Jay Kristoff and optioned by Brad Pitt’s Plan B Entertainment, the storytelling is dynamic and incorporates transcripts, interviews and graphics. Kaufman is also the co-author of The Starbound Trilogy, and the much-anticipated Unearthed. She speaks to Phillip Simpson about multi-layered storytelling, and transportation to other universes.”
