Rachel Bach grew up wanting to be an author and a super villain. Unfortunately, super villainy proved surprisingly difficult to break into, so she stuck to writing and everything worked out great. She currently lives in Athens, GA with her perpetually energic toddler, extremely understanding husband, overflowing library, and obese wiener dog. You can find out more about Rachel and all her books at rachelbach.net.
Rachel also writes fantasy under the name Rachel Aaron. Learn more about her first series, The Legend of Eli Monpress, and read sample chapters for yourself at rachelaaron.net!
"Firefly-esque in its concept of a rogue-ish spaceship family...
The narrative never quite goes where you expect it to, in a good
way... Devi is a badass with a heart."--Locus on The Paradox
series
"Bach makes her SF debut with this series launch that introduces a
strong female heroine whose mind is mostly on her career -- and her
high-tech suit of armor -- yet who finds herself inexplicably drawn
into a relationship that could damage her life and her honor. Fans
of Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan series and David Weber's Honor
Harrington novels should enjoy starting another potentially
long-running SF military saga.--Library Journal
"Bach's space opera is a fantastic, action-packed and accessible
exploration of deep space. Devi is hands down one of the best
sci-fi heroines I've read in a long time...Fans of Douglas Adams,
Scalzi and Fforde will absolutely devour Fortune's Pawn."--RT Book
Reviews (4 1/2 stars)
"If you liked Star Wars, if you like the Kate Daniels series, and
if you are waiting for Guardians of the Galaxy to hit the theaters,
this is your book."--Ilona Andrews
"Rachel Bach's Fortune's Pawn is based on a fascinating premise and
launches what looks to be a superb military science fiction
series."--Eric Flint
"Rollicking space opera starring a tough, sexy, armor-clad space
chick...Lots of fun."--Kirkus
"This book kicked ass... I JUST LOVED IT!"--Felicia Day
