Seven Moons is a twisting rat's-nest of a story - easy to get lost in, but constantly engaging, and always moving forwards. Brutal, graphic, and darkly witty.
Graphic: Homophobia, Murder, Sexual content, Death, Hate crime, Police brutality, War, Gore, and Violence
Moderate: Child death, Suicide, Colonisation, Kidnapping, Confinement, and Genocide
Minor: Car accident, Sexual harassment, Alcohol, Drug use, Animal death, and Death of parent
