We are pleased to announce that Fletcher DeLancey’s science fiction novel The Caphenon is now available for pre-order. The Caphenon is the first book in the Chronicles of Alsea and a must read for everyone looking for fiction that features smart and in charge women.

Fletcher’s female characters are comfortable with power, whether it’s in a high-stakes political game or on the bridge of a spaceship. Featuring rich science fiction fantasy settings in the tradition of Tanya Huff and Elizabeth Bear, she has created a world where women and men are not limited by arbitrary gender roles. 

cover_The-Caphenon_500x800On a summer night like any other, an emergency call sounds in the quarters of Andira Tal, Lancer of Alsea. The news is shocking: not only is there other intelligent life in the universe, but it’s landing on the planet right now.

Tal leads the first responding team and ends up rescuing aliens who have a frightening story to tell. They protected Alsea from a terrible fate—but the reprieve is only temporary.

Captain Ekayta Serrado of the Fleet ship Caphenon serves the Protectorate, a confederation of worlds with a common political philosophy. She has just sacrificed her ship to save Alsea, yet political maneuvering may mean she did it all for nothing.

Alsea is now a prize to be bought and sold by galactic forces far more powerful than a tiny backwater planet. But Lancer Tal is not one to accept a fate imposed by aliens, and she’ll do whatever it takes to save her world.

The Caphenon is available for pre-order from Amazon, Apple, and Kobo.
