DangerousType cover lo-res This coming Friday afternoon — August 7 from 1 pm to 4 — I’ll be signing my new novel, The Dangerous Type, in Flint, Michigan. Even if you’re not into space opera, come support my favorite Barnes & Noble and say hi. I would love to see you.

If you can’t make it during the signing, you can call Barnes & Noble and ask them to reserve a book for you. I can sign it on Friday while I’m there. Their phone number is (810) 732-0704.

Barnes & Noble listed The Dangerous Type  on their Bookseller’s Picks for July. They called it “a propulsive, action-heavy revenge tale constructed from a web of complex, strained relationships.”

Set in the wake of a galaxy-wide war and the destruction of a human empire, The Dangerous Type follows the awakening of one of the galaxy’s most dangerous assassins and her quest for vengeance. The Dangerous Type is an adventurous space opera with a supporting cast of smugglers, black market doctors, and other ne’er-do-wells sprawled across a galaxy brimming with alien life.

“Rhoads takes the best elements of Star Wars and makes them dark, gritty, and real; then mates them with Guardians of the Galaxy and Firefly to create a kick-ass and totally original love child. A must-read!” –Dana Fredsti, author of the Ashley Parker: Plague World series

When: Friday, August 7 at 1 pm
Where:  Barnes & Noble Flint, Genesee Valley Mall, 4370 Miller Rd, Flint, Michigan 48507
