October 14th, 2015: Today is the day! Banished Sons of Poseidon, the follow up to The Seventh Pleiade, hits stores, spreading some high fantasy, Atlantean queerness around the world.
Early reviews have been a bit slow to come in, but I was thrilled that BSoP was picked out by All Our Worlds Diverse Fantasy Fiction.
” ★★★★1/2. Monsters, magic and vibrant characters. A lot of fun.”
You can read the full review here.
Here’s the cover and the story blurb:
After escaping from a flood that buried the aboveground in seawater, a fractured group of boys contend with the way ahead and their trust of an underground race of men who gives them shelter. For sixteen-year-old Dam, it’s a strange, new second chance. There are wonders in the underworld and a foreign warrior Hanhau who is eager for friendship despite Dam’s dishonorable past.
But a rift between his countrymen threatens to send their settlement into chaos. Peace between the evacuees and Hanhau’s tribe depends on sharing a precious relic that glows with arcane energy. When danger emerges from the shadowed backcountry, Dam must undertake a desperate mission. It’s the only hope for the Atlanteans to make it home to the surface. It’s the only way to save Hanhau and his people.
