Overview
"Alana is a mystery among myths: A forbidden blending of dark elf and orc (driven to "extinction" centuries ago). Alana is truly a child of the African diaspora; and the bastard scion of a noble Elven house, and the last descendent of a lost Orcish clan. Trust, these ain't Tolkien's orcs. She is also supposedly destined to end the world, or save it, depending on which myths you read. Since she's known to be a screw-up, it could really go either way. Pale Through Her Eyes is an urban fantasy set in an alternate contemporary America. Urban fantasy in the style of The Dresden Files meets speculative diaspora fantasy similar to The Deep by Rover Solomon. Featuring BIPOC LGBTQ+ leads, it also explores unique takes on multiple familiar fantasy "monster" races, and is written by a Black Trans non-binary author. This is the first in a planned series." -- Abstract
