Greetings, travelers!  Our trip through the Otherworld today is a special treat for all fans of child-friendly science fiction adventures.  I met author William G. Bentrim while I was vending at a recent Ren Faire, and we talked about his catalog of work.  Among them is a spectacular science fiction survival adventure that is perfect for older kids and young adults.  Bentrim is an incredibly passionate creator, and his work surrounds social issues and themes of self-importance, belief in oneself, and the power of growth.  If these elements sound like they would be a fit for you or someone in your family, read on to learn more about Kiku’s Quest (The Quests of Kiku Book 1).

Author William G. Bentrim brings a passion for storytelling and a love of imaginative detail to Kiku’s Quest (The Quests of Kiku Book 1), his first full-length novel.  This book introduces readers to a universe filled with adventure, danger, and astonishing technology, while centering on a heroine whose courage and compassion make her a compelling role model.  Indeed, Bentrim has a penchant for delighting readers with interesting and entertaining characters including a fluffy companion that steals all the scenes they are a part of.  Throughout the story, the prose is fun and funny, but never at the cost of diminishing the universe it’s part of.  It’s immersive and inspiring throughout, and it keeps the pages turning.

The wonders of genetic engineering in a dystopic galaxy led to the creation of Paladins to protect the weak. Lost in the galactic upheaval of a disintegrating empire, Paladins disappeared. Kiku, a genetically enhanced female warrior is blithely ignorant of her abilities and Paladin’s legacy. Connecting with an off-world, naive young starship officer changes her life forever. Connecting to a 2500-pound war dog leads to recognition of her abilities and the responsibilities they entail. Together the three vow to save Kiku’s planet from greedy opportunists.
With a style that is both accessible and vivid, Kiku’s Quest balances action, character growth, and inventive worldbuilding.  Bentrim’s futuristic universe is populated with imaginative technology, fantastical creatures, and a cast of characters that feel alive and real.  Young adult and teen readers will delight in the heroic deeds, surprising twists, and warm camaraderie that define Kiku’s adventure.  Kiku’s Quest offers a thrilling, heartfelt, and engaging entry into a new sci-fi saga. If that piques your interest, don’t wait.  Check out Kiku’s Quest (The Quests of Kiku Book 1) on Amazon today!
