What makes TYRANT STAR different from STAR WARS?? Well, for one thing female characters are FEMININE without sacrificing anything instead of being modern-day mouth-running Mary-Sue types. They dress better too. Male characters are very serious ass-kickers, but well-mannered, even gentlemanly and some small actions of chivalry enter the picture now and then. Once you forcibly open a sealed-shut blast-door, it's only proper you invite your female companion to go first....it's just good manners. ...and scores points with her. This universe IS more 'adult' than STAR WARS. TYRANT STAR is not about a plucky rebellion. It's about three galactic civilizations opposed to each other over ideologies, philosophies and history. It's bigger and broader in scale, set in a truly Ancient galaxy with many secrets, mysteries and unknown histories. It is NON-Allegorical. It follows in Tolkien's footsteps in that it has it's own history and such, it is in NO way a commentary on the real-world AT ALL. Other folks do Allegory, so it's covered, and I find allegory to be not to my tastes as well as interferes with true escapism for the audience. Book One is on sale now at the link below and Book Two continues to steadily approach it's Publication date as the editing progresses day by day. Book Two introduces some new characters, worlds and opens things up about what life is like outside of all the actiony-goodness. Luke had it 'easy' on Dagobah. lol Book Two of course stokes galactic events to a higher flame as War inevitably and unstoppably grows closer.
