The Skellig Ly de Angeles

The year is 2156. Dystopia. Misrule. Pirates, badlands, transdrone sex slaves, cowboys, rebellion. THE SKELLIG is the story of hope and redemption where hard tech and stainless-steel meet legend and myth. The skellig is a shape-shifter who goes by the name of Gamble. She's all woman. Most of the time. On the black of the moon she's another creature altogether, a deal she made, with the soul of earth known as the Grace, a few thousand years ago. Sometimes, over a couple of days, she's a bit of both. A desperate escape across the border is the only hope for thousands of runaways. Guided by an indigenous and immortal starman, the shape-shifting skellig, a Maori mystic and a good-looking scientist, who should be the enemy but is not, they make the journey. Bull and Rattlesnake Lil drive an Airstream, the Midnight Express, packed to the rafters with escapees and hybrids. Alice, in his armored all-terrain tank, raises his rainbow pennant on a fifteen-foot high middle-finger to the drone-swarms overhead. A militarized force, not far behind, is intent on annihilation. Freedom is beyond the northern border, a mighty, raging river, guarded by a mythic race called Álfur. It is live free or die.
