Hi Patchers,
I'd like to introduce you to some of my new characters. The series is written in third person and there are multiple charcter viewpoints. Baronessa Mira Fedor is the main character. Mira is much haughtier and less physically able (not as kick ass) than Parrish but she is very smart and determined.
Some characters will only make intermittent appearances over the series, others will be in each novel.
Jo-Jo Rasterovich is another main character. He's a larrikin misogynist who prefers his holo-women to the real thing. However, he does have some very endearing qualities. Meeting Mira Fedor turns his world upside down.
You've seen a glimpse of Tekton - the foppish academic but there are many others. Trin Pellegrini the beautiful, spoiled heir to the Pellegrini riches, Cass Mulravey the strong-minded leader of the Latino women torn apart by the war. Rast, the unpredictable female mercenary.
Lots of people for you to play with!
More soon
Marianne

Wow! I can't wait to see what these characters are actually like. Jo-Jo seems a bit of an anti-hero at the moment (grrrr, misogynism!) but I'll wait and see about the endearing qualities. I can see myself latching onto one of the more minor characters and showering love on them (like I do with Ibis and Teece). For now, I predict it'll probably be Tekton, just because of the word 'foppish'. XD

Hiya all, thanks for the interest. Cj, I'm sorry but it's not cpunk this time. However, there's still plenty of action and attitude. You can't have a mercenary without attitude I promise there will be intrigue and relationships a plenty. MDP

hi all, I've upgraded my website some. Some of the pages are still under contruction but have a look and tell me if you notice any mistakes/omissions. There is a new excerpt for Dark Space and one for book 2 which is called Wither.
There is also a sneak look at my YA novel and a mini synopsis for the film project.
Check it all out and get back to me.

Yay! Wow, there's a lot of new stuff to read. I can tell I'm going to like Mira, from the excerpt. She rocks. *nod* I'm also really, really interested in the Age of Rage stuff... it's a cool concept. ^_^ And the fact that the island's called Ixion made me laugh, because there's a summon in one of my favourite games called Ixion, too. Everything's looking good - well done!

Ooh, Parrish out-takes! Yay! I was going to ask at some point whether you had deleted scenes (now I'm making it sound like a DVD)... And a summon's... err... kinda complicated. You have a character whose attacking method is really crap, but she can call these creatures whose attack is much higher, and Ixion is one of those.

So many ladies, so much time... ;D Can I make an appearance and flirt with all of them? And for some reason, a picture of Mira appeared in my mind... It probably doesn't help that I'm in love with Natalie Portman also...
