• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

ON ICY NAXADA, the Shiranu farm in lava tubes under a dormant volcano, avoiding hunter tribe the Sargussi. But the mutually-hostile tribes' world will soon be torn apart by natural forces.

Planetary geologist and astronomer Jordas Krata, part of a team observing an incoming asteroid, becomes telepathically linked with Yado, a Sargussi man, as he cements a relationship with the lovely Shiranu female runaway Soolkah. Jordas enters this precarious balance of nature to rescue both tribes from the destruction about to rain down on them and help resettle them on a safer planet. But with the social structure of the tribes, the consequence of a shortage of females and all the brothers in each family group being telepathically linked, how can Jordas avoid emotional involvement with Yado and Soolkah? Especially when he and Yado also share the physical senses - including both painful and pleasurable sensations.

Autorenporträt

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Helen Claire Gould has been writing since her teens, having read her first two Science Fiction novels at the age of nine. At the Peterborough SF Club, where she met her husband, she contributed to the club fanzine A Change of Zinery. After suffering some miscarriages in 1992 she began writing for therapeutic reasons, joining Orbiters (SF postal writing workshops) and setting up the Peterborough Science Fiction Writers' Group. She edited two small press collections of short fiction, Shadows on a Broken Wall and Mother Milk, Father Flywheel, organised a weekend workshop on writing for comics, and had book reviews published in the BSFA review magazine, Vector.

Returning to full-time education in 1995, Helen graduated in Geology and Planetary science in 2000, teaching Geology and Creative Writing evening classes, and editing further collections of short fiction by her Creative Writing students. In 2013 she organised and ran a series of writers' workshops for the Peterborough Arts Festival.

Floodtide was Helen's first published novel, and was set in her own fictional universe. The Stallion is an ecological fantasy loosely based in that universe. She... is a collection of original short stories, not based in that universe, with a background theme of fertility and motherhood.
