Ghosts of the Helium Waste: Book 2

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Elthi is publicly brutalized and branded 'the Wyrmkiller' - public enemy number one. She has no choice but to lay low.

But laying low means shifting the blame for Mine 89 onto her lover, Pella-Kat, and her husband, the crafty Robert Brack. Elthi, alongside a Dark Ops cell, attempts a rescue mission. Can Elthi protect those close to her even as she seeks to reclaim those taken?

The Saga of Elthi Brack the Wyrmkiller is an original tale of desperate rescues and pulp-fiction tech-based-terrors, but the cadence is Suzanne Collins' 'The Hunger Games" in a blender with Harry Potter. The plot, inspired by my own experience of criminal vagrancy, moves briskly to a climactic end in every chapter. This book is 'cliffhanger-heavy.'

This book is First-Person Action Science-Fiction, set in a fictional 28th century.

In the future, mankind destroys the planet surface, and relocates onto floating continents in the sky. To complicate matters, before we leave the surface, we weaponize an atmospheric layer of whirling helium and metal.
We call this layer the Lightning Cloud.
