Cultural Theorist Seg Eraranat was ready to conquer his first new world, claim its riches, and return to his dying planet a hero. What he wasn’t ready for was to fall in love with one of the locals–Ama Kalder, a feisty young boat Captain–or to lead her people in rebellion against their tyrannical overlords. Hunted by enemies across two dimensions, Seg and Ama will have to strike an uneasy alliance to survive. The fate of two worlds is in their hands.
Interview with the authors
Q: So, what makes the Warpworld series so special?
A: (Kristene) Josh and I come from very different backgrounds and live in contrasting environments–rainforest and desert–and it seemed only natural to write an adventure science fiction series that brought together contrasting worlds and characters. Two authors, two worlds, two heroes.
A: (Joshua) A world covered in water is as alien to Seg as a rainforest is to me. Toss in big discrepancies in culture and technological development and you have a recipe for conflict.
A: (Kristene) And romance!
Q: Is there a reading order to the series?
A: (Joshua) Yes. Warpworld is a five-book saga and should be read in chronological order.
Warpworld
Wasteland Renegades
Ghost World
Final Storm
And…to be announced!
A: (Kristene) We are also adding shadow stories as we go. I’d recommend reading Unity Tested after the first book (Warpworld) and Place of Others after Ghost World.
Q: Why should readers give these books a try?
A: (Kristene) Because they’re amazing! But, seriously, this is a series that covers a lot of ground–figuratively and literally. You’ll find Game of Thrones style Machiavellian politics, a Mad Max level female hero, a Dances With Wolves kind of romance, and some Marco Polo exploration. Oh, and let’s not forget a mysterious supernatural Storm that threatens to eat an entire world.
A: (Joshua)Ama, our female hero, is a reader favourite. If you like kick-ass female characters, you won’t be disappointed. Warpworld is as much a women’s adventure series as anything else.
Q: What about readers who aren’t sure they want to commit to five books?
A: (Joshua) That’s why we’ve made the first Kindle book in the series free. Try it out, see if you like it. We think you will.
