Russell’s Attic is the original self-published version of S.L. Huang’s Cas Russell series. The books were initially released independently starting with Zero Sum Game and Half Life (both 2014), followed by Root of Unity (2015), Plastic Smile (2016), and the planned Golden Mean.

When Tor Books picked up the series for traditional publication, some titles were changed and the series name shifted to “Cas Russell.” Readers should treat this and the Cas Russell series as the same body of work.
