Like The Expanse, but with extra maps

This might be the fastest concept-to-finish generator I've ever done, but the Elevator Pitch / Blurb Generator is done and live!

I was reading a book announcement on tor.com that described a book as being in the vein of two books that were as utterly unlike each other as...as...two unlike things. Naturally, I had to make a generator.

So! If you are a writer who needs inspiration, a publicist who is writing a press release, or an author who's been asked to blurb a book and you're lost for words...here you go! It tends to float between things that sound legitimate and things that take a left turn through WTF.
