About the author
Mel Dunay
16 books5 followersI've traveled all over the world, but now I live in the American Midwest with my extended family. I have no cats, only a vacuum robot named Minnie, who probably would not play nicely with the feline species.
I write plot-first fantasy and science-fiction, where my characters fight tyrants and other monsters, escape murder charges and slavery, and occasionally save civilization as they know it. While they're having these adventures, they also forge strong emotional connections with their comrades, but they come from cultures that do not treat physical intimacy lightly, and with all that danger around, they usually don't have time for it anyway. If you like a little humor, a little romance, lots of adventure, and no explicit content, welcome! You've come to the right place. I write for readers who want meaningful romantic subplots without explicit content, and adventure that never gets sidelined by the love story.

A Good Beginning
The storyline is an interesting blend of sci-fi and paranormal actions, with decent character development and an easy to follow plot. Most story threads are resolved at the end, though this reader was left looking forward to the next book.

Highly recommended.
