Blessed is the Link: A Dark Science Fantasy by Sheri Singerling


The Chains of Blood and Politics—Youth Rebellion and Class Warfare in a Neo-Feudalist World

Lenore knows injustice all too well, seemingly destined to languish in the shadow of her parents, Fenrir and Sophie. They are the de facto leaders of a Simetria reborn, the city transformed by the fall of the Church of Impermanence two decades past. But old biases persist between high bloods and low bloods, the well-off and the less fortunate, and unrest is on the rise. But Simetria is not the only bastion of civilization plagued by inequality. Even in a foreign land with vastly different views on all aspects of life, the poor are abused by the rich.

Lenore’s eyes are open to it all—the wrongs committed against the people, the burden inherent to her bloodline. Yet there comes a point when the downtrodden are pushed too far and find the strength to fight back. Revolution is in the air, in Simetria and abroad, with the working class ready to topple corrupt systems and one rebellious youth eager to break free of heredity’s shackles.

Blessed is the Link is for fans of dark science fantasy, cosmic horror, and coming-of-age stories. It is book #2 in the Bit trilogy, a sequel to Blessed is the Rot.
