Synopsis

A hidden people not so hidden anymore.

The Hidden Realm of Angolin has existed in peaceful isolation for centuries, but that's about to change. The enemy across the Abyss has discovered them and is intent on conquest. Lieutenant Dharmen Tate has a great love for his homeland and a greater understanding of its position in the world. When he discovers a plot by fellow officers to join the enemy and overthrow Angolin, he and his colleagues spring into action to defend the Hidden Realm from its foes―those without, and those within. The ensuing struggle magnifies Angolin's vulnerability and exposes the collusion of a growing body of its citizens, signifying an uncertain and bloody future.

For readers who enjoy Star Wars: Bloodline by Claudia Gray, Embassytown by China Mieville, and Catalyst of Sorrows by Margaret Wander Bonnano.

About this title

About the Author

C. E. Taylor’s fascination for science fiction began early as a child. As a nerdy, curious kid uninterested in sports or little else his peers liked, he created his own worlds and realities, and followed sci-fi adventures that captivated him. Instead of playing with toys, he built cities with found objects, and later, created fictional societies and cultures on paper. Later in life, his interest in human culture, and in urbanism led him to pursue degrees in Cultural Anthropology and Urban Planning, but his science fiction passion remained. His penchant for other worlds, places, and times led him to write the first book of the Angolin trilogy. 

 

By day he works as a planner for the city government. His evenings and weekends are spent honing his story of a hidden society that is discovered by a dangerous enemy. Whether creating storylines, histories, and world-building for his novel series or dealing with the inescapable real world, he finds a form of Anthropology in everything he experiences in real life and in everything he reads, as even fiction provides insight into the human condition. C. E. Taylor lives in Chicago with his spouse.
