Two Awesome Releases!

Today is the release of CassaStorm!

And the release of Real Girls Don't Rust,

which contains my short story, Seeing Red.

 

CassaStorm is by the amazing, and ever-supportive, Alex J. Cavanaugh. He is such an amazing person, and writer, I'm happy to share this release-day post with him. :)

A storm gathers across the galaxy…

Commanding the Cassan base on Tgren, Byron thought he’d put the days of battle behind him. As a galaxy-wide war encroaches upon the desert planet, Byron’s ideal life is threatened and he’s caught between the Tgrens and the Cassans.

 

After enemy ships attack the desert planet, Byron discovers another battle within his own family. The declaration of war between all ten races triggers nightmares in his son, threatening to destroy the boy’s mind.

 

Meanwhile the ancient alien ship is transmitting a code that might signal the end of all life in the galaxy. And the mysterious probe that almost destroyed Tgren twenty years ago could return. As his world begins to crumble, Byron suspects a connection. The storm is about to break, and Byron is caught in the middle…

 

“With a talent for worldbuilding and a compelling cast of characters, Alex J. Cavanaugh combines high powered space battles and the challenges of family dynamics to provide readers a space opera with heart.”
- Elizabeth S. Craig, author of the Southern Quilting and Myrtle Clover mysteries

“I thought the revelation was going to be one thing and I was completely wrong … CassaStorm pushes the limits…”
- Tyson Mauermann, Speculative Reviews

“…mesmerizing story of survival, personal sacrifice, tolerance, and compassion. It’s a rare jewel that successfully utilizes both character and plot to tell a story of such immense scope and intimate passion…” - Nancy S. Thompson, author of The Mistaken

Like I said, Real Girls Don't Rust also comes out today.

It's a collection of YA steampunk short stories.

I'm super excited about it for a few reasons.

One, I love steampunk and I can't wait to read the other authors' stories.

Two, this was the first YA story I ever sold.

Secondary Characters ended up getting published first,

but I sold Seeing Red first and it was an amazing moment for me.

Three, it's available in print and I can't wait to get my copy. It's so darn cute!
