New book for Fall of 2016! THE DIABOLIC

So I’ve just sold a new book to the amazing Justin Chanda at Simon & Schuster. It’s called THE DIABOLIC, and it will come out next fall! I’m so excited for you guys to read it!

WordPress is being a bit difficult and the text keeps blurring, so I’ll transcribe:

“S.J. Kincaid’s THE DIABOLIC, a stand-alone action adventure thriller set in space, called a YA take on the epic, I, Claudius, about a genetically-created teenager named Nemesis who is a Diabolic, thought to be a killing machine; assigned to protect an heiress to the Galactic Senate summoned to court to serve as a hostage, Nemesis goes in her stead and must pose as a rined, sheltered heiress.”

If you haven’t seen the BBC drama, I, CLAUDIUS (based on a series of novels I shamefully haven’t read), then do yourself a favor and watch it!

A more detailed description:

“The book revolves around a genetically created teenager named Nemesis. She is what’s known as a Diabolic, thought to be a soulless killing machine. Nemesis was created to protect an heiress to the Galactic Senate, but when the Emperor summons this heiress to his court to serve as a hostage and pawn— Nemesis is sent in her stead. It’s the only way to protect her master. Now this killing machine faces the most difficult task of her life: posing as a refined, sheltered heiress, swimming in a sea of ruthless aristocrats. Nemesis discovers Diabolics may be more human than she ever believed, but at the high court, this might be the greatest weakness of them all.”

That said, this website is very INSIGNIA themed so I anticipate needing to redesign it sometime in the near future! Stay tuned.
