Here’s the background: A couple of weeks ago, I gave away an angel––my sci-fi, fantasy, visionary fiction novel, The Angel & the Brown-eyed Boy. The Angel is Book I in the Tales from Earth’s End Saga. Well, a lot of people wanted free angels, and I was a happy author at the end of that promotion. Here’s a picture of The Angel up there next to fantasy mega-success, George R. R. Martin.
The Angel & the Brown-eyed Boy hit #1 in Free Science Fiction Adventure it kept that spot for most of a day. The only difference between out sales was that Martin got paid.

What do you do for a follow-up when you’ve given away an angel? That’s a hard one,, but I’m giving away GRACE Yes, Lady Grace: A Thrilling Adventure Wrapped in the Embrace of Epic Love. Â Lady Grace has been called a “Modern Sci-fi Masterpiece”, but we’ll get to that.
There’s a big philosophical question here: How do you give away grace? Grace is essentially and inherently free. Can’t be earned, bought, sold, cajoled. Nothing but given away. Grace is a gift from God, or however you conceptualize the Creator of the universe. It’s what makes the good times roll. In fact, it is the good times.
In this case, grace is pitched a little lower: I’m giving you a bunch of pixels that add up to a wild, fantastic, terrifying, sexy, loving, redemptive, unbelievable story. Really. Here’s a bit about the book.
Lady Grace: A Thrilling Adventure Wrapped in the Embrace of Epic Love
Lady Grace begins a few thousand years after The Angel ends, when the radiation clears. The Earth blows up at the end of The Angel & the Brown-eyed Boy, Book I of the Saga.
OH! YOU DIDN’T KNOW! OH, GEE! I’M SO SORRY. But that’s actually the least of the action coming down in the book. So don’t worry. Lady Grace is free-standing, so you don’t have to have read The Angel to get it, though you’ll probably want to.

When the earth blows up at the end of The Angel & the Brown-eyed Boy, that was it, right? The characters go off in all directions, nevermore to be seen.
Not exactly.
In Lady Grace, a few survivors of the nuclear holocaust make their way back to Piermont Manor, Jeremy Edgarton’s ancestral estate. The radiation is gone and it’s finally safe to go home. 

What awaits them makes their worst dreams look like Bollywood frolics.
Right away, they find out that evolution can work for evil as well as good. Going home requires a battle more deadly than any they’ve fought. 

The returning characters appear from everywhere, in ways you’d never believe.
Some of them you’ve met before; some are new to Tales from Earth’s End. 

Bud Creeman and Wesley Silverhorse, characters from earlier novel, Numenon: A Tale of Mysticism & Money, drop in from the year 2015, thousands of years before the time of Lady Grace. Bud and Wes provide needed Native American skills and spiritual power.

Shining through it all is Lady Grace a phoenix rising from the devastation of her civilization, unrecognizable as the person she once was.
It was a new world, 
but was it one that permitted love?
REVIEWS:
“FIVE STARS! A MODERN SCI-FI MASTERPIECE!
 Lady Grace was first-rate science fiction and one of the most absorbing page-turners of that genre that I’ve read in years. Author Sandy Nathan exhibits the imagination of Ray Bradbury combined with the whimsicalness of Douglas Adams. That’s high praise, but it’s warranted. The story includes so much action; tense, suspenseful drama; and two charming love stories that it’s irresistible.” 
J. Chambers, Amazon Top 50 Reviewer (#39 at this writing)
“LADY GRACE HOLDS ITS OWN WITH THE BEST OF TODAY’S SCI-FI PAGE-TURNERS while accomplishing much more. Nathan’s second book in the Tales from Earth’s End is just as much a spiritual and psychological exploration as it is science fiction/fantasy thriller. Nathan has created a unique niche that leaves her without rival in the canon of contemporary fiction.”

Nathan Fisher, MBA Stanford Graduate School of Business
“MUCH, MUCH MORE THAN FANTASY!
 Lady Grace could well be categorized as suspense because the author skillfully keeps the reader on edge wondering what will happen next. The novel’s fantasy world holds the potential for unexpected, monstrous perils and magical, heroic rescues. Sandy Nathan never fails to surprise with plot twists and character transformations. But Lady Grace offers more than an exciting read. The author shows us the possibility of redemption and illuminates the power of having a spiritual practice without endorsing any particular religion. A must read for fantasy lovers who appreciate the transcendental.â€
Kathleen McGuinness JD, author of Terminal Ambition, A Maggie Mahoney Novel
“I LOVED LADY GRACE! FROM THE FIRST MOMENTS, I COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN. Sandy Nathan has done it again. Within her believable, gripping tale of people who have somehow survived a thousand years, Sandy explores instant telepathic teleportation, human-animal relationships, survivalism, personal relationships, social experimentation, dehumanization, and the most of these . . . Love. The twists of Jeremy’s evolution with Eliana and his mother, Veronica Edgarton, are breathtaking.â€
