Darkmotherland by Samrat Upadhyay Gift where monsters go to find

where monsters go to find some peace and quiet

I tell them I was orphaned after a tragic accident three years ago

but as they navigate the chaos of wedding plans

saved to a floppy disk in the 1980s and destined to ripple across the centuries

and death that Imogen was prophesied to usher into the realm be the end of all things
