I wanted to give anime fans who are gay and transgender an outlet and not feel a stigma about being out. Even though book one doesn't deal much with being gay or transgender, the lead character Ameliano is gay and there is another character Blue who is transgender.
The story is set in the near future and is about a group of psychic agents who work for the Psi Faction. They are mobile frame pilots and use their psychic powers to fight. In the first book the main group that opposes the Psi Faction is the Packrats, they are a group of renegade terrorist psychic hackers that are trying to take back the Echelons and the Zone from the autocratic control of the Elite Military forces and the Triumverate.
Two of the characters Faid and Riuho escape from the Psi Faction. But Faid must return after he loses control of his psychic power. The lead character Ameliano works for the Psi Faction. His half brother Riuho joins the Packrats after he escapes. The Psi Faction is sent to retrieve Riuho and after a long drawn out psychic battle Ameliano, nicknamed Lino, captures Riuho and they go about trying to reinstate his memory since he had his memory erased to protect the Packrat's secrets.
The Packrats along with the Terror Hack another renegade group go up against the Elite and actually end up killing alot of people in a terrorist attack on the City. In this attack Lino's mother is killed. Lino is dead set on getting revenge on Riuho and the Packrats. Faid defects and rejoins the Packrats and then Lino fights Riuho and goes over his psychic limit and is put on maintenance with psychic inducer drugs. Riuho then goes on a rampage against Lino weilding the Packrats against the Psi Faction as his own personal army and captures Lino and violates him.
We don't actually find out that Lino is gay until book 2 when he meets his mate pair, which is a ceremony between psychics where memories are transferred and a connection is created between the two people. I wanted to create a story that teenagers who are gay and transgender can look to and feel comfortable with. And since the main character is gay and in the military per say i wanted to make that okay. The Psi Faction is basically a military installation. In book 4 we see the characters transferred to a battleship and they fight in their mobile frames against the Atlantea Federation. Faid, the lead Packrat becomes mate paired to Blue in book 3, and as a transgender character we learn that Blue is happy and well adjusted. Another character that is transgender is Iin. She is a trance channeler that can read the timestream and see into the future. She was changes by her psychic conditioning and now sees herself as 100% female and is well adjusted.
I wanted to create a universe where transgender and gay teenagers could be comfortable and throwing in a few mobile frames and some psychic battles didn't hurt.
I am proud of my book and having written 7 of them so far am embarking on the path of getting them all published. Well we can only hope that someone ends up buying them.
