They Called Her Rebel: A Fantasy Novel about Late-Stage Capitalism, People Power, and Queer Love

From community organizing to sorcery, every tool is on the table when fighting for a better world!

Exploitative. Hyper-Productive. Militarist. Miserable. Quatron is a fantasy world warped to serve the cold interests of a corporate oligarchy. Romantic. Arrogant. Idealistic. Intense. Ellaria is a young woman doomed to decades in a credit camp after inheriting her father’s medical debt. Locked away, closely monitored, and put to work with thousands of others, it’s clear there’s no future for people like Ellaria under this system ... so she will fight for a new one. Joining forces with an eight-foot-tall aspiring optimist, a wizard with a shotgun, and an ex-noble sorceress that she can’t keep her eyes off, Ellaria will revolt against Quatron’s regime of corporate control. But Ellaria has critical questions to answer: How can anyone defeat such a deeply entrenched system? What will the oligarchs be willing to do to stay in power? And most importantly, what sort of world should she aim to build? She needs to find her answers quickly. The time of rebellion begins.
