What people are saying about SILICONE GOD:

Silicone God takes a Cronenbergian tenderness to the boundaries of queerness, forcing us to confront the social mores of monogamy, infidelity, and what it means to plumb the depths of taboo when you're still discovering who you are and what you want from the world. -Elle Nash

As unmoored from convention as it is sizzlingly hot. -Alison Rumfitt

Victoria Brooks has served up a literary mille-feuille, with deliciously wicked cream spread between sickly sweet layers. Dark, disturbing, and deeply sensual all at once, you'll devour every page. -Samantha Allen

Clive Barker meets Fassbinder’s The Bitter Tears of Petra von Kant. I inhaled every delicious spore of psychosexual brilliance. -Jillian Luft

It's a riot. I mean, how could it not be with lines like, "This isn't literature. It's leftovers." It mocks the things it loves and loves the things it mocks—the effect is fantastic fun. -Derek McCormack

…A post-porn masterpiece! -Annie Sprinkle

…Compelling, enrapturing, and gorgeous. -Jessica Stoya

…Singularity of Silicone God births horny bish whorror. #Bookgasm -Jack Skelley

…at once sensual, ridiculous, epiphanous and transformative… As any great fuck should be. A truly exciting debut! -Brad Beau Cohen

A slick, hot, pleasure-filled journey about the possibilities of transformation and the healing the future could hold. -Saskia Vogel

Raunchy, rebellious, startlingly imaginative, playful but deadly serious, Brooks has created a must-read 'book-gasm' of queer pleasure and illicit redemption. -Sarah Law

All the makings of a queer cult classic. Joyfully perverse and perverted. -Laura Kaye

Reading like a collaboration between Angela Carter and Kathy Acker, this is the kind of pornosophical book we need more of in the world. -Jonathan Kemp

Strap On! Slide In! Bliss Out! Victoria Brooks' Silicone God fills that yearning hole left by your earliest and most affecting weird-lit-porno crushes... sultry company for heavily-thumbed works by Charlie Jane Anders, Dennis Cooper, and Alex Trocchi. -Jamie Sutcliffe

More writing:

non-fiction books: Fucking Law (Zero Books, 2019) and Mistress Ethics (Bloomsbury, 2022).

I also write (long and short pieces) about: mistresses/infidelity, sex+sexuality, ethics (love), gender multitudes, oceans+tentacles, aliens+shape-shifting, time-travel, trauma, and sometimes erotica (with an AI or sci-fi angle).
