Synopsis

Two women agents arrive on a busy spaceport in need of a new pilot to aid them on a dangerous secret mission ...

But as highly trained as they are, nothing has quite prepared them for everyday life in the Naito empire

When they are accosted by cyborg officers, the resulting altercation leaves both officers dead and their mission in jeopardy. Needing to leave, they take the best option presented to them, accepting the help of an overconfident, poorly skilled man-boy freighter pilot.

They find they have to think on their feet to evade capture or death, so they can complete their mission to the planet of the dispossessed.

The Planet of the Dispossessed is the first novel in a series of fantasy, espionage and space adventure. Based on imperialism and European settler colonialism. Contains violence.

About this title

About the Author

Lydia is an online apparition who frequents the Fediverse and you can follow her there (currently) at: @LydiaConwell@todon.nl. She is just some nobody with an art school background, who lives in London, writes stories in her spare time, owns a cat and loves noisy, avant-garde music.

Lydia often writes futurist worlds, which she describes as Synehitopian - that is, a continuation of our current political and technological landscape rather than a strictly dystopian future. Her stories explore manipulation, control and power dynamics, and people's willingness to succumb to the rule of corporate hegemony.

You can check out her nonsense on her Psychic Drool blog
