Didn't do a marketing post in a while, so, uh...

If you DO like:
- your protagonists a bit on the broken side of things
- women who don't give a toss about what anybody is telling them
- "oh, shit" conga lines (that thing starts a few minutes after an explosion destroyed large parts of the ship and it doesn't get better anytime, soon)

And if you DON'T like:
- toxic relationships
- violence as the ultimate solution
- stories without glimmers of hope

#HeraldPetrel might be the #SciFi novel you haven't yet read, but might enjoy. You can get it at your favorite store here:

Graphic with tropes and arrows for book promotion showing Herald Petrel and a can of Irn Bru. “Broken main character” points to the cover with an image of Captain Herald Galahad. “Seriously, he doesn’t want to be in this story. But still is.” points to “Broken main character”. “No white male savior (not sorry!) points to nothing. “Romantic subplot involved” points to “Broken main character” and to “Strong women”. “Dark” points to book. “But also hope” points to “dark”. “With situational humor” points to “dark”, “but also hope” and “broken main character”. “Hurt/comfort”, “Proud ace character”, “Cargo space ship in distress” and “unlikely heroes from various species and cultures” point to book. Can of Irn Bru is labeled “No Irn Bru in the story (sorry!)”
