Dystortions: 100 Hues of Purple
by Lisa Pell
Black Rose Writing

Award-winning writer Lisa Pell brings a sci-fi tale of former journalist Addy O’Malibul, who is convicted of murder and imprisoned on the planet Malaprop, a planet in the likeness of Earth with a few distortions: national security analysts, politicians and PR folk trying to re-write history. This novel filled with murder, love and humor is one that any sci-fi lover can indulge in.
