Yesterday, hacking whiz Daniel Grace was just another lonely college student, concerned with little more than passing the Academy’s science exam and coming up with questionably legal ways to pay his tuition.
Today, his planet has been attacked. A disgruntled former prince named Ellatar Davarin has made an alliance with a species of magical shape-shifters called shades, and has returned to his homeworld to claim his throne.
Soon, Daniel finds himself facing the onset of interplanetary war. Fortunately, he manages to avoid the combat division… by becoming a spy.
As a spy, Daniel is shipped off to Telel along with a quirky team of cohorts:
A soldier with a chipper disposition who once killed thirty shades at one go
A seventeen-year-old farm girl with joan-of-arc style visions
A former police officer exiled for refusing to swear traitorous oaths
Their mission: find and destroy Prince Ellatar’s hell-portal before the man-eating shades overrun all of Dralina.
Does it still count as a WIP if I’m in the later stages of editing?

Please comment to be added to the taglist, and please help me meet the goals for publication! I am looking for 1000 email addresses for the Shades of War update list. If I can meet this goal I will be ready to open up the book for pre-orders. You can add yourself to the list here.
