Nichelle Schulz

September 15th, 2026

Worldbuilding. You can go macro—Frank Herbert’s Dune, George R.R. Martin’s A Game of Thrones—or, in the case of Cariboo author Nichelle Schulz, small-town micro. In Death + Comedy (A Sad Girl Publication $20), the second volume in her Douglas Mountain mystery series, residents reside in one another’s armpits, their intimacy redolent with questions about reinvention, professional legitimacy, loneliness, trust and the high cost of living. An SFU Writer’s Studio graduate and former film projectionist, Schulz writes mystery, horror and speculative fiction with dark humour and an unmistakably Canadian accent. 9781069133922
