We are excited to reveal the cover to grydscaen: union, volume 8 in the grydsacen series, featuring artwork by Natsuya Uesugi. The cover features the pilot Nathaneal Barjan who has a big part in the space opera story arc that takes place on the Pacific Territories La Paz space station with the 8th space fleet.
Drawn traditionally and coloured digitally, the cover features Nathaneal in the cockpit of his Quadrion Isshin mobile frame, the high tech, single-seat, dual engine, 9th generation, stealth battle armour used by the Pacific Territories military in combat with the Atlantea Federation.
grydsacen: union is a space opera that reveals the complex, dynamic, in depth, and rich worldbuilding of the grydscaen series and explores the space colonies of the Pacific Territories that was teased about in the short story “Juniper Colony” featuring Titch the mobile frame technician from grydscaen: tribute. Titch reprises his role from the battleship Escalon as Lino’s frame technician on the La Paz space station.
The entire Psi Faction extended team takes part in this story arc which starts with the Atlantea Federation attacking resource satellites and giving up their neutral stance in space. Ordered by the Triumvirate, the Psi Faction team goes on mission to La Paz where Lino, Blue and Sati along with Nathaneal are tasked to fight space battles and protect the colonies from the scourge of the Atlantea Federation.
grydscaen: union is currently in production and is due for release in early March. Check back for release date. grydscaen: union will be available online from Amazon and Barnes and Noble in ebook and paperback formats.
