Please welcome S.L. Dove Cooper and Heart of the Covenant, a novella featuring a collection of cozy sci-fi stories:
In Heart of the Covenant, five stories explore ties of friendship, family and culture, embracing our differences and our similarities.
Having applied to be an ambassador for her people within the Galactic Covenant, Hedriar has relocated to Cerulean Station, one of the Covenant’s largest residential stations. There, she’ll spend the next years sharing her own culture and learning about the Covenant’s as part of an exchange programme between the two.
Hedriar may not have the most detailed of plans of what, or even how, to share the aspects of her culture that matter most to her, but she’s got enthusiasm, family and new-found friends at her side. She’ll figure it out, and along the way she’ll learn that what people value most may not be so different at the core.
Heart of the Covenant is a cosy, low-stakes science fiction collection with a strong focus on slice-of-life narratives.
Heart of the Covenant is charming and sweet collection of sci-fi themed slice of life stories if you’re looking for a bite size taste of friendship and family across the stars.
About the Author
S.L. Dove Cooper (she/they) is a queer author and editor. She spends much of her time exploring asexuality and aromanticism in literature, finally having found a good use for her MA in English literature and creative writing. She currently resides on the European continent and her idiom and spelling are, despite her best efforts, geographically confused, poor things. She has been chasing stories in some way or another since she was old enough to follow a narrative.
