Neodymium Exodus

"Fascinating characters matched with inventive biological details makes this an adventure that's sure to enthrall. Space opera fans should snap this up." - Publisher's Weekly

Lem's a mace-wielding teen space-ninja in a universe of sentient
insectoids, purple jungles, and insane electromagnetic fields. She solves
most problems by hitting harder, and never plays by her enemy's rules -
until Jared Diebol captures her.

Diebol's the rising leader of an army uniting the galaxy by force. He
believes the violent energy being Njande has "contaminated" Lem and
her friends from another dimension, infiltrating their EEG signals to
conquer the matter-based universe. The army usually kills contaminated
people - but Diebol vows to cure Lem. When Diebol kidnaps Lem's
family, he forces her to choose between the matter beings she loves and
the energy person she adores. If Lem rejects Diebol's cure, her family
dies - but if Lem cuts out Njande's energy, she opens our universe to a
much darker thermodynamic attack.

A blend of hard biomedical science fiction with multicultural fantasy,
Neodymium Exodus combines the introspection of classics like
Perelandra with the vibrant boldness of modern best-sellers like This
Alien Shore and Space Opera. Which would you choose - save your friends now, or save the Universe...later?

"An epic conflict over the very structure of society, and battles both stealthy and dramatic combine to make an entertaining, quick read set in a lightly sketched but intriguing world." - Booklist
