Author Challenges Stereotypes in New Futuristic NovellaFantasy/Fiction author Wm Kane takes direct aim at the lack of representation of people of color in popular science fiction/fantasy.
Last Things by Wm Kane Wm Kane is an African-American author of novellas that pack a big punch. His stories are Pretty Hot And Tasty (PHAT) Reads aimed at readers looking for a satisfying but quick reading experience from the perspective of people of color. “My characters reflect the fact that people of color are overlooked or absent in mainstream visions of some foreseeable future as if Black people don’t read sci-fi or aren’t interested in fantasy,” Kane explains. “My books show that we have a future, too, and that we can be the determining force for saving humanity.” Dealing with themes that focus on the existential human questions of the meaning of this Life, religion and man's relationship with his fellow man, Kane's works of fiction, fantasy, sci-fi take readers on compelling, fast-paced journeys into highly visual new worlds not that far into the future, filled with unique characters, exotic settings, lots of intrigue, adult themes, complex twists and surprise endings, all while conveying a message of hope, possibility and faith in the triumph of Good over Evil. “So much of current science fiction is soulless and depressing,” Wm Kane is published by Shiva’s Karma LLC, an independent publisher of ebooks by authors of color. His latest novella is available at Amazon.com and as a paperback from CreateSpace.com. Kane’s previous novella, MEMOIR OF A TIME YET TO COME, also published by Shiva’s Karma and available at Amazon, was the first in his SoulEater Chronicles series, which continues with LAST THINGS.
