The human colony on Terra Nova celebrates its first year. Still at odds with the native population, the colony finds itself susceptible to Charneki sabotage despite superior technology. Growing tired of the stalemate, a new strategy is pursued: A delegation will march to the native capital and try to broker peace. A grief-stricken Zeneba has hardened into a warrior queen. The aliens took her brother from her, but they won't take her home.
S.E. Wendel is a graduate of the MA Creative Writing program at the University of California, Davis. She loves maps, magic, and making epic fantasy worlds with romance thrown in. She has been writing fantasies since before she could even type (thankfully her mother was kind and patient enough to take dictation, but is relieved she can type for herself now)! From her first stories about raccoons hunting treasure on a haunted island to her latest sweeping epics, she loves to write strong heroines and noble heroes. S.E. is a technical editor by day and in the evening loves to lose herself in her fantasy worlds and the stories of other amazing authors. She is currently working on the second part of the Broken Wings Duet. She loves her domineering orange tabby cat, true crime docs, tiramisu, pink nail polish, and swoony romantasies!
