☆ COMPLETE NOVEL by Lynda Williams ☆

From two cultures that should never meet, come four people who do.

RIRE. The homeworld of a science-driven and inclusive civilization, underpinned by an AI network and spanning a handful of worlds. Faster-than-light pilots like Ann are essential but heavily monitored due to their reckless personalities. When a new mission will take her to the long-lost Sevolite empire after 200 years of separation, she is accompanied by the brilliant scholar Ranar, a renowned expert on Sevolite culture and language who must mitigate the impending culture clash.

GELION. In the Sevolite empire, piloting aptitude is hereditary. With their superhuman capacity for reality skimming, Sevolites rule over natural humans. Di Mon is the leader of one of the eight families at the heart of Sevildom's oligarchy. Although a power broker in a corrupt and elitist court, he believes in the equality of all humankind. Meanwhile, at the bottom of society, the beautiful dancer and courtesan Von struggles to survive as a pawn in the power games of his Sevolite superiors.

[Book 2 of the ARC10 Trilogy] Rampant addictions, psychotic breakdowns, and threats of mutiny keep Commander Janika Lorn up all night. Transporting two-thousand souls safely from a destroyed Earth to a new habitat aboard the refugee ship ARC10 has been a special kind of hell - especially while also hiding her illegal pregnancy from her commanding officer. She wonders if they should turn around and take their chances in the crumbling underground bunker city they abandoned, even with the hostile invading aliens still patrolling the sky. She wonders if they're capable of surviving the rest of the journey. Because it seems like her troubles couldn't get any worse, and they've only been in space for three months. As usual, Commander Janika Lorn is wrong. When she finally hits an all-time low in the confines of an alien prison, a botched rescue operation puts her life in the black-gloved hands of Captain Shin-Hyun Moon of the HMS Valediction - a notorious vagrant and patchwork monster who was stitched together with the eclectic skins of the galaxy. Despite being instant enemies, Lorn and Moon are forced to work together to salvage their separate missions that have gone totally awry. HMS Valediction is the sequel to 2017 Watty winner ARC10, the second installation of the ARC10 trilogy. Cover art by the enormously talented @FayLane
