Hello again! Today I’m so excited to introduce a fantastic new science fiction adventure hitting the shelves this winter. While you’re waiting for the first new buds of spring, grab your space suit and a bottle of whiskey because we’re about to take a wild ride aboard the starship Aspasia with author Sara Bond. Her debut book Gravity’s Heir is a Firefly-inspired adventure with Captain Lena Lomasky as she tries to protect both her legacy and a datastick that has the potential to kill millions of innocent lives.
But wait, how do I already know all this?
Sara has been a dear writer friend and critique partner for several years, and one of my favorite moments of 2019 was meeting her in person and drinking a little Death in the Afternoon. Years ago, I was lucky enough to read Gravity’s Heir in its earlier iterations and I couldn’t put it down. Her characters come to life on the page, and she gets your heart pounding through all the intensity as Lena navigates Aspasia through the stars.
So if you love second world science fiction filled with action and quirky bonds between friends and family, you’ll want to stop by the next starport and gear up for an adventure through the stars.
When her father threw her out, sacrificing his only living daughter for the good of his shipping conglomerate, Lena Lomasky swore she could make it on her own. But now she’s broke and desperate, and pride won’t fuel her spaceship. Her latest job is simple: carry a datastick of state secrets home to her father. The same man who cut her off without a cent. Whatever. She can do this. Pass the whiskey.
An ill-timed royal assassination ignites a war and Lena’s crew is blamed. When she thinks to use her cache of state secrets to save them, Lena discovers she’s actually smuggling the only known plans for her father’s invention: a gravity bomb that can vaporize entire cities.
Lena must decide: continue on and hope her father can design a defense to save millions of lives, or leverage the plans to save the only people who really matter.
And now without further ado, the gorgeous cover for Gravity’s Heir:

Born and raised in Atlanta, Sara is a southern tall-tale teller with a terrible poker face. So, she writes fiction to better conceal the difference between truth and imagination. After dabbling in careers in academia, politics, and even a lucrative job in high-end fashion, she always found her way back to writing.
Sara lives with her husband and two children who think communication is best achieved through volume, repetition, and pure conviction. |
