TRIPTYCH is now available on @radishfiction! Kalp is a widower, burdened with an unimaginable grief, who escaped his dying world with nothing but his own life and a half-finished toy for a child that will now never be born. Gwen is a language expert covertly recruited for a United Nations initiative to integrate a ship-full of alien refugees into life on earth. She becomes Kalp’s teammate and lifeline. Basil is the engineer who lives with, and loves them, both. But he has no idea how to defend his new relationship against the ire and condemnation of a violently intolerant world. Part "District 9", part "Lost in Translation", and part "Stranger in a Strange Land", TRIPTYCH is a poignant, character-driven science-fiction story about tolerance, love, loss, and the desperate attempt to find connection in a world that no longer makes sense. Named one of the best books of 2011 by Publishers Weekly (@pwpics).

Three cheers for Barnes & Noble in Utica, Michigan for supporting #pridemonth🌈 . . . #Repost @blueyedbooks with @get_repost ・・・ As I was running around @barnesandnoble looking for reaper, I came across the LGBTQ+ books they had set up and thought “OH WOW! That’s so cool!” It makes my heart so happy to see this display. I love having so many books to choose from that I can personally relate to and having it out there in front of people to see makes me feel so much joy because no matter how hard it is these days to be yourself, it will always get better! ✨🌈 . . Q: have you read any of these books?! And I’d love to know if your nearest bookstore has a LGBTQ+ section!❤️ • • #lgbtq #books #readpride #booklove #bookstagram #bookblogger #pridemonth #booknerd #lgbtreads #lgbtliterature #loveislove #barnesandnoble #bookstack #bibliophile #booksig #bookworm #bookstagrammer

Robin Arianhod has been shot down, and is on the run. Trapped behind enemy lines, her only choice is to disappear inside the sprawling capital of Klonn, and use the mysterious rocket pack she stole from the enemy to end the decade-old war. Her vigilantism attracts the attention of more than just the city guards, though, and Robin finds herself embroiled in an underground Klonnish rebellion. But are the rebels really her allies, or are they using her as bait? And will the secrets of her former arch-nemesis end the war, or lead Robin and her allies to their deaths? Rife with high-flying action, subterfuge, and deception, The Skylark’s Sacrifice is the explosive conclusion to the saga of war-torn Saskwya, and the one pilot who can change it all.

A Saskwyan flight mechanic with uncanny luck, seventeen-year-old Robin Arianhod grew up in the shadow of a decade-long war. But the skies are stalked by the Coyote—a ruthless Klonn pilot who picks off crippled airships and retreating soldiers. And as the only person to have survived an aerial dance with Saskwya’s greatest scourge, Robin has earned his attention. As a Pilot, Robin is good. But the Coyote is better. When he shoots her down and takes her prisoner, Robin finds herself locked into a new kind of dance. The possibility of genuine affection from a man who should be her enemy has left her with a choice: accept the Coyote’s offer of freedom and romance in exchange for repairing a strange rocket pack that could spell Saskwya’s defeat, but become a traitor to her county. Or betray her own heart and escape. If she takes the rocket pack and flees, she could end the war from the inside. Filled with #intrigue, #forbiddenromance, and a touch of #steampunk, #TheSkylarksSong soars in this new #duology from the award-winning author of #TheAccidentalTurnSeries. Book 1 in the duology.

Pip, who is pulled against her will into the epic fantasy novel series she’s loved since she was a teenager. However, the world is darker, and far more dangerous than she could have ever predicted, especially when it turns out the hero is a much bigger misogynistic ass than she knew.  Pip knows how to circumnavigate the Hero’s Journey and the pitfalls and loopholes of this particular world – but what will happen to her beloved characters outside of the comfort of the fantasy they were written for? And what happens when it’s not the male-power-fantasy hero, but the hero’s overlooked and bullied little brother who proves to be her biggest champion?
