Khe - Paperback

She looked for salvation. She found monsters.Khe loves her simple life on a farming commune until she discovers that her gift for pushing the crops is a death sentence. Fleeing across the treacherous wilderness, she makes her way to the city of Chimbalay, searching for the orindles who might save her. But Chimbalay has its own dangers. The Powers are there--the secret rulers who have chosen Khe to be the mother of a monstrous new race.Neither "man in space" SciFi nor classical fantasy, Khe deftly blends elements of both while satisfying those wanting something new in a dystopian story. Readers looking for solid world-building and fresh and fully-realized characters will especially enjoy this book.Khe's story continues in Ashes and Rain and concludes with By the Shining Sea. A companion novella, Gama and Hest, tells the history of Khe's world.
