Orcs and Starships.
Alternate Earths and Flying Battleships.
Ryan Abe writes genre-clashing novels. His first book, THE PATHFINDERS, is a science-fantasy somewhere between Warcraft and Starship Troopers. And his second is STORMHEART, a diesalpunk-fantasy featuring real-world warships warring in the skies above a 1930s alternate earth.
The pathfinders
An Orc spec-ops team crashes on a nameless moon filled with space pirates deep within the Empire of Humanity.
A battle-weary Thaedred’Kairn of clan Sol finds his pathfinders short on ammo, surrounded by enemies and eons from home. Avenues of escape dwindle as darkness conspires against them.
stormheart
11930s Cloudearth is filled with flying battleships, thunderbirds and viking jazz. Chiefson Valkur Stormheart, commands Windwalker, an advanced battlecruiser prototype on its maiden voyage when his home is attacked by powerful invaders: the Meshicatlan Federation.
Now Valkur must gather an armada of smugglers, warlords and old enemies to take back his home while navigating skies filled with dragons, floating mountains and red thunder.
