Q: Why do you refer to your series as space opera? What is a space opera?
A: I didn’t even know what space opera was until I landed my publisher. I just knew science fiction in general. Space opera tends to be lighter, more focused on adventure, and often epic in scope.
And now, book number 3 of the epic, bestselling series!
CassaStorm
By Alex J
Cavanaugh
From the Amazon Best Selling Series!
A storm gathers across the galaxy…
Commanding
the Cassan base on Tgren, Byron thought he’d put the days of battle behind him.
As a galaxy-wide war encroaches upon the desert planet, Byron’s ideal life is
threatened and he’s caught between the Tgrens and the Cassans.
After
enemy ships attack the desert planet, Byron discovers another battle within his
own family. The declaration of war between all ten races triggers nightmares in
his son, threatening to destroy the boy’s mind.
Meanwhile
the ancient alien ship is transmitting a code that might signal the end of all
life in the galaxy. And the mysterious probe that almost destroyed Tgren twenty
years ago could return. As his world begins to crumble, Byron suspects a connection.
The storm is about to break, and Byron is caught in the middle…
“With a talent for
worldbuilding and a compelling cast of characters, Alex J. Cavanaugh combines
high powered space battles and the challenges of family dynamics to provide
readers a space opera with heart.”

ReplyDeleteHi, Gwen,

ReplyDeleteI didn't know what a space opera was until I started blogging and met some of the great sci-fi writers like Alex and M.Pax. I'd never even heard of it before. Great question and I'm so happy for Alex!
ReplyDeleteHey Gwen,
ReplyDeleteI suppose it wouldn't be a daytime Space Opera. All the best for Alex. And thank you for being a part of the announcement, Gwen.
