Barred From Heaven

Prequel of Reaching For The Sun

Dana, a crabling hybrid, escapes her own death with Itvara, a defective octoling technician from the Octarian Valley. The hidden, darker side of Inkopolis is explored through their gang ties, work and relationships, as their two nations fall into warfare again. Vestigal feelings take the lead in their rule over the streets, and their fight for survival.
