The Two Gay Geeks 🏳️🌈 have a chat with author Angel Martinez. We have a great chat about how she got into writing as well as some of her previously published works. Keith was most intrigued by the Offbeat Crimes series (which Keith did pick up and read the first three books). We got so carried away with our conversation that we forgot to highlight her upcoming release Sub Zero, that you can read about below and pick up tomorrow, June 16th. Have a listen and we hope you enjoy this as much as we did.
About Angel Martinez
Angel Martinez is the pen name of a writer of several genres who writes both kinds of queer fiction – Science Fiction and Fantasy. (What? There are others?) Currently living part-time in the hectic sprawl of northern Delaware, (and full time inside the author’s head) Angel has one husband, one son, at least one cat at any given time, a changing variety of other furred and scaled companions, a love of all things beautiful and a terrible addiction to the consumption of both knowledge and chocolate.
Angel’s other name, Sandra Stixrude, writes all-ages science fiction.
Returning to the frozen planet Aren died on was bound to have complications…
A Science Fiction Mystery from Angel Martinez…
Major Aren Dalsgaard’s newest assignment is to investigate a series of murders on the frigid planet, Drass, where relations between the Treaty settlers and the indigenous inhabitants have taken a nasty turn. A linguist and trained xenologist, Major Dalsgaard should be the ideal Special Investigations Officer for this case, but Drass is where he died, over a hundred and twenty years ago.
Sent by his family to the chigyel city, Nyachung finds himself confronted with a murder charge, racial prejudice, and a man who claims to be a hero from his grandmother’s generation. The man could be crazy or he could be lying to manipulate Nyachung, but the sincerity in those spring-green eyes disturbs him more than anything else he’s encountered in the foreigners’ city.
Evidence that makes no sense, mysterious boxes, and a suspicion that they can’t trust anyone in the city drives the major and Nyachung together and out into the wilderness. No one’s telling Major Dalsgaard everything, but every step leads him closer to a feeling of imminent catastrophe if he can’t wrap this case up in time.
