QSF Releases Our First Book

by
Discovery

The first one is The Homecoming – from Less Than Three – I call it my wolfman v.s spaceman book. It’s about a man returning to Earth five hundred years after mankind abandoned the planet, and what he finds when he arrives. This gorgeous cover was created for me by the talented London Burden, who stuck with me even when I was an incredible PITA. I’m thrilled with … Read more
