A gorgeous collection of poetry, fiction, and self-examination, all through the lens of giant monsters; the authors are not simply fans of kaiju but weavers of their mythology. Within these pages is something for anyone who's ever felt a kinship with a great beast."

- Cressa Maeve Áine

Devastation Songs is a treasure chest for anyone casually interested in (or downright obsessed with) Godzilla and other kaiju. This diverse, rich, and endlessly creative collection of poetry and prose inspired by giant monsters from Japan and around the world is a revelation and a joy. Offering vivid imagery, raw emotions, a touch of sadness, and flashes of humour, this book is bursting with insights on kaiju, why we are fascinated by them, and what that fascination reveals about us as humans."
