Description

In this post-apocalyptic space fantasy, Phoebe, an irreverent young space explorer, flies a maiden voyage into the proverbial wall. Phoebe loses her ship, her planet, her soul's ambition. Phoebe loses her way. Stuck on a planet where Gravity waves madly for attention, she finds unlikely allies in Cai and his sidekick. Now it turns out Gravity is waving goodbye. Skewered like a trio of olives in Future's dirty martini, the three are spit out on a planet where normalcy, species-integrity, and self-determination struggle for a toehold. Although blitzed by every chapter from the Book of (likely) Menace, they discover the irony of Science: Reality is pretty unreal. A close examination isn't for the faint-hearted. Lose it all. Or find everything that really matters. Wise-cracking, passionate, their adventure becomes a race to embrace difference, joy, laughter, irony and the impossible. With such a winning formula, what could possibly go wrong? Say Hi 4 Me (when Gravity waves) serves up the many faces of adversity: war, violence, alien encounter, capture, imprisonment, race and gender politics. And, possibly, giant pink worms. A woman, a man, and the sentient beings they come to know, are chewed up and come to a reckoning. They shirk and pillory conventions, expectations and tropes. Willy-nilly, with every step of their adventure, Phoebe and crew comically puncture pomposity and profane the language. Merciless blasphemy. Wit, grit, and gravitas.

Author Biography:

Amy Tychell is the fictional name of a real person (A. Mitchell), whose real life rivals Amy's fiction. She started early. Ambitious to put herself through 15 years of University. A forester, the only female on an all-male crew. Earlier still, a model. A loping Amazon live on radio at 16 boldly challenging broadcasters on their skewed, limiting, sexist views of women. Addicted to science, to ways of thinking that break the mold. An adventuress, she recounts the enduring hallucinations from being too long on watch in a small sailboat in Force 11 seas. A perfect storm. Chasing black bears over morning coffee, polar dips in ice-rimmed lakes, a junior member of the Alpine Club at 11 years of age. A love, Sandy, 25 years and counting. An endless stream of war-torn cats to rescue. They learn English and prove they know by precisely defying every single word. Fire-fighting. Waving bikini-clad from the Rodeo Float in the Calgary Stampede Parade. Fiction. Not. But fiction, drawing out the irony, the comedy, the sense and power of place and being, is the truest way to share. She is still waiting for maturity to kick in.
