J. Scott Coatsworth
Silya has to embrace her role as the Hencha Queen. But will it be enough to save the Temple, and her world?
Silya Aya is the Hencha Queen in name, but she still feels like an imposter. Why was she chosen? And is she up to the task of defending her temple, her city, and her world from the alien invaders, the aaveen?
And will she overcome her greatest fear? To do so, she’ll need to master the one thing she’s never managed to do before. Herself.
About The Author
J. Scott Coatsworth
J. Scott Coatsworth writes stories that subvert expectations, that seek to transform traditional science fiction, fantasy, and contemporary worlds into something new and unexpected. His writing, whether romance or genre fiction (or a little bit of both), brings a queer energy to his stories, infusing them with love, beauty and power and making them soar. He imagines a world that could be and, in the process, maybe changes the world that is, just a little.
A Rainbow Award-winning author, Scott’s debut novel, Skythane, received two awards and an honorable mention. With his husband, Mark, he runs Queer Sci Fi, QueeRomance Ink, Liminal Fiction, and Other Worlds Ink. Scott is also the committee chair for the Indie Authors Committee at the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association (SFWA).
