Entitlement
Author's Note
One of my primary motivations for writing this book was to explore a protagonist with deeply flawed morals - someone whose words and actions might repel, yet whose humanity still invites compassion. The story challenges readers to grapple with moral ambiguity and discomfort, and to find empathy where it may not be easily earned.
Please be advised that this book contains language and situations that some may find offensive. These elements are presented as part of the character's reality and are not reflective of the author's own views.
About the Book
Cadet Jason Crawford has dedicated his life to fighting the mysterious alien race which threatens the massive city-ship he calls home. A few days before his first mission, however, Jason discovers a terrible secret - one that could mean an end to his way of life forever.
Fearing government reprisal for this newfound knowledge, Jason takes refuge in the Rim, a walled-off section of the ship where citizens are left to fend for themselves while the government ruthlessly plunders its resources.
Gritty and dark, Entitlement is a story of struggle and survival in a dystopian society built on fear and greed. Though you may be tempted to judge the characters, be certain of one thing: on the USS McAdam, no one is quite as good - nor quite as bad - as they seem.
An earlier version of this novel was previously published as I Dreamt of Trees.
