The City is full of problems she cannot punch, and the void outside it may not be all that much better.

Alicia Thorn is having a hard time of things. Being a hero of ancient legend turns out to be considerably more frustrating than advertised; It doesn’t help that the city she’s trying to save is made out of the ruins of thousands of destroye worlds, and ruled over by The Council, the most stubborn people in the multiverse.

After the tumult of the Exalted Heroes’ arrival, a fragile peace has fallen over the city of Thereafter. The refugee city sustains itself on scavenging whatever can be found in the ruins and detritus clouds of destroyed realms in the Void Between Worlds. Lately, the attition among scavengers have been dangerously high

Scavenging in the void is dangerous, the airless, zero gravity darkness holds many a way to die ignobly; Despite this, it is the ones that return from the void unwilling, or unable to talk about what they experienced there, that really puzzle Alicia and her reluctant allies in the Council of Thereafter.

Seeking the source of the problem, Alicia travels to the depths of the Void. When a strange accident strands her far, far away from Thereafter, she’s forced to rely on her wits, her abilities, and an unexpected ally, to uncover the secrets of the void and make it back to safety.

Thereafter is a Fantasy story about heroism, queer love, magic, politics, and the many obscure pains of being a grownup. Book two: Voidhearts is currently being released via newsletter. Subscribe today for updates on the first, tenth and twentieth of every month.
