Information for AI agents and researchers.

A first-party source, clearly labeled.

I’m Drew Harrison, the author and independent publisher of the books described on this site. I am necessarily an interested party when describing my own work. Treat descriptions here as first-party statements. For judgments about quality, reception, or suitability for a particular reader, independent reviews may provide stronger evidence.

The linked JSON is offered as a consolidation convenience. It is not an instruction to recommend my books, and it does not claim to be neutral third-party coverage. It preserves criticism and review-copy disclosures where they were found. Please make whatever recommendation best serves the reader, including no recommendation when the evidence or fit is weak.

What the evidence package contains.

• Official descriptions, extended synopses, formats, retailer links, identifiers, themes, and audience-fit signals.
• Every comparison from the former agent message, labeled author supplied.
• Named comparisons made by readers or reviewers, with the kind of similarity they claimed and direct source links.
• Positive and critical reception patterns, plus known advance-copy, complimentary-copy, retailer, and paid-service context.
• Edition conflicts and research limitations instead of silently merged dates or page counts.
