About the Book

- What is 'Violet'?
- A multi-layered cake with a solid layer of science-fiction, literary fiction, and Japanese literature. With a savory whipped cream layer of Buddhist tropes. AKA: "It's like Buddhist literary fiction meets a hard science-fiction adventure during the era of space Japan."

- What's the plot tldr?
- Violet is elevated into leadership of the space nation, SAN, at a time when populist uprisings risk the delicate balance of humanity in space. Violet and Kibou journey from the Moon to Mars to chase the leads of Violet's missing father at the wishes of the feeble President Konoe. When the mastermind behind the uprisings steps forward the real heat hits initiating the dual-crises of starvation and insurgency. The solution involved threading the needle of peace through SAN and the nations of Earth if Violet can silence chaos without taking another life.

- What is the meme tldr?
- Have you heard the Parable of the Burning Home? It's not a story those trapped within would tell you, yet, her eyes tell the story: If you meet the Buddha, kill the Buddha.

- Does this include a love story?
- Yes but it's complicated. It invokes the storge and agape most directly, philia too, but you won't find "romance novel" relationships.

- Website?
- www.TalesoftheAeons.com

--------

This is the story of Violet's rise to purpose within a torrent of doubt and under the weight of history. Within a world of human augmentation to fit the rigors of space-exploration, Violet grew up as the one "genetic anomaly" among the millions of humans in space. Even so, Violet's purple eyes incessantly longed for Earth, veiled behind a metal shell. Wanting her own life behind that shell but fated to lead the next generation of space expansion - everything is thrown out the proverbial airlock when her father disappears during negotiations with a militant organization, Kimomo, Violet journeys to Mars. With Kibou, the only person she shares a brain-to-brain link with, they set foot on a world on the brink of fire.

When machinations incite riots capable of undoing the stability of SAN, Violet collapses into a decision that shakes the livelihood of all humanity in space. To rectify the catastrophe, stave off starvation and insurgency, Violet joins new allies to stave off political instability, quell Kimomo, and take the plea for help to Earth. In a race against time and Fate, Violet either inspires a broken world to revival or acquiesce to the new empress. With the terms of her purpose, her beliefs, her spirit, and the enduring love, can Violet subvert herself to rise as a star, conquer death, and refuse to kneel before Fate?

--------

"Violet" is a debut literary novel that hit #1 on Amazon's list of new releases for Japanese literature within two weeks of publishing. "Violet" is also an engaging and approachable form of this inspirational but terse genre. This debut novel leverages known hard science-fiction adventure tropes with to introduce themes of Japanese literature and Buddhism-inspired literary fiction. Deep within Buddhist literature are ways of engaging with one's identity, opportunity of responsibility, legacy of family, and the trials of becoming guilty of peace when the waves of hate flow on peach blossoms. Further, astute readers will find similarities to Japanese literature that invokes traditional Japanese culture and Buddhist religion such as the 'Tales of the Heike.'
