About the Book
Union Tower has fallen. The Extrahuman Union is no more.
Sky Ranger, leader of the recently annihilated Extrahuman Union, is on the run. Deceived by his former Confederate allies, despised and branded a traitor by the rest of the world, Sky Ranger has left Earth behind in search of atonement.
Impetuous and stubborn, Renna is one of the refugees aboard the same ship as Sky Ranger and instantly feels drawn to the former hero. Along with an orphaned teenager named Dee, Renna is one of the only people who will acknowledge Sky’s presence—even after their ship crashes. Together, in the middle of a scorched desert planet, Sky Ranger, Renna, and Dee form an unlikely bond.
Everything changes when Dee is abducted and whisked from alien space back into the heart of the Confederation. Sky Ranger faces a grim choice—to go his way alone, or return to face the same government that committed genocide against his people.
A story of hope and adventure, sacrifice and freedom, Sky Ranger is the second novel in the Extrahuman Union series and the direct sequel to critically-acclaimed Broken.

June 28, 2016 at 7:57 pmGrowing up in Sweden I read a lot of “Fantomen” / “The Phantom”. For some reason, that particular superhero is/was huge over there. I was always partial to Green Lantern as well… In the current crop of superhero movies, I’m a big fan of Chris Evans as Captain America: it’s not so easy making such a good guy interesting, but he’s managed it.

Story about Jane: I was at Readercon last year, and saw Jane on a couple panels, and did see her walking around the convention as well. Then at Boskone earlier this year, I got into the regrestration line behind some women, who I could swear I knew from somewhere…… Then it hit me and I was all, “Hey! I know you! You’re an author! I forgot your name XD But I saw you at Readercon last year!”

June 29, 2016 at 6:41 amI’ve loved the Netflix representation of Daredevil, as a superhero I hadn’t had much interest in before. I like my heroes dark and tortured, and I think Netflix is doing great things with the genre at the moment 🙂
