A Prayer for Dawn
"With A Prayer for Dawn, Nathan Singer announces himself as the hip new grandmaster of America's literate underbelly. This book is crazy and hilarious and brilliant and, because the voices in it speak so dead-on true about the crippled ways we live, thoroughly appalling. "
—Mike Magnuson, author of Lummox

Chasing the Wolf
"This isnt normally the kind of book Id pick up, but the premise intrigued me, so I started reading. I can tell you that I was definitely glad I did. Chasing the Wolf is a fast read not even 200 pages but with so many levels of subtle action that you will want to savor each one. "

In the Light of You
"Singer evokes with rare passion the tumultuous confusions and conflicts as teens seek to work out their racial and sexual identities...readers will find Mikal’s erratic passage through a rough adolescence both vivid and compelling."
—Publishers Weekly
Expletive Deleted

"Jennifer Jordan saved the best for last, however, in Nathan Singer’s “The Killer Whispers and Prays … or, Like a Sledgehammer to the Rib Cage.” It is the story of a love triangle between two soldiers—one male, one female—and the woman they both loved back in the States."
