Rumors of War

by Amy DuBoff

The Taran Empire is fighting a secret interdimensional war... and they're losing. Cris Sietinen joins the Tararian Selective Service to hone his latent telekinetic abilities, but being a TSS Agent puts him at the center of a galactic conspiracy. The TSS has been waging a generations-long war within a hidden dimensional rift against the Bakzen, a mysterious race skilled in advanced telekinesis. The only hope for victory is the prophesied Cadicle--foretold to have powerful abilities unlike any other. But the governing Priesthood has its own clandestine agenda with disastrous ramifications for the Taran Empire. With the future of their people at stake, Cris and his family must face the ultimate questions of duty and morality to save their civilization from certain destruction. This character-driven space opera epic with adventure, coming-of-age, romance, and intrigue will appeal to fans of Frank Herbert, Anne McCaffrey, and E.E. "Doc" Smith. Join three generations of the Sietinen family as they challenge destiny to win a war where enemies are not always who they seem.

About the author

*See full list of current publications under A.K. DuBoff*

I have always loved science fiction--books, movies, shows and games. If it involves outer space, even better!

Most of my writing is character-driven, which traces back to my time as a Psych major in college. I love to blend science and fantasy, especially when it comes to metaphysical abilities.

As a full-time author, I currently live in Portland, Oregon, with my husband. When I’m not writing, I enjoy travel, wine tasting, binge-watching TV series, and playing epic strategy board games.
