title: Without a Front - The Warrior's Challenge (Chronicles of Alsea) (Volume 3)
author:  Fletcher DeLancey 
description: "I got the *stop-reading-rest-your-eyes* warning from my reading app five times. That's how hard is was for me to put the book down and participate in real life." -- <i>C-Spot Reviews</i><br /><br />"As with the previous two books in the series, this is extremely well written, plotted and planned. The attention to detail is exquisite and makes the plot come alive. Alsea is a place an attentive reader could visit, describe and visualise...Books 2 and 3 of the Chronicles of Alsea have both been nominated for the Goldie awards this year. Good SciFi/Fantasy is a joy to read and for delivering an excellent trilogy which covers alternate worlds, credible science fiction, socio/political drama and romance, they deserve every accolade they get. Genuinely loved these books and look forward to reading them again and again." -- <i>Lesbian Reading Room</i><br /><br />"The remarkable second half of <i>Without a Front</i> picks up the story right after the spine-tingling cliff-hanger at the end of <i>The Producer's Challenge.</i> All the threads the author so carefully positioned in book two -- be they around different relationships, political machinations, or empathic powers -- are picked up and brought to a conclusion in this volume. if you enjoy political thrillers with tough women fighting for their lives, and if you're looking for a read that is as intricately put together and suspenseful as it is fascinating in its conclusion, then you will probably like this novel as much as I did. I can't wait to see what's next for the Alseans!" -- <i>Rainbow Book Reviews</i><br /><br />"I would just like to say Fletcher DeLancey really knows how to write. Buckle your seat belt and hang on because you're in for a wild ride. Whatever she wants you to feel, she is a mastermind at writing it. You're just going to have to trust her and don't read ahead! If you're looking to get into a quality series look no further. The Chronicles of Alsea delivers with just the right amount of action, intrigue, and romance." -- <i>The Lesbian Review</i>

  ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
  
  First and foremost, I owe buckets of gratitude to my lovely wife, Maria João,
  who gave me the opportunity to write without guilt. Before we met, I stole
  time from my life, marriage, and sleep requirements to furtively spin my
  fantasy worlds into real-life words. With Maria, theft has never been
  necessary. And so my greatest thanks must always go to her, for loving a
  writer and never complaining about being an occasional writing widow.
  
  Well, almost
