Product Description
==The Other Side of Life (Final Version / Book #1, Cyberpunk Elven Trilogy)==
Summary: A thieving duo's world turns upside down when an Elven rogue uncovers the heinous dealings of a megacorporation.
Synopsis: Anya and Leticia are partners-in-crime who steal for a living. Their world turns upside down after a chance encounter with fellow rogue, Ithilnin--the enigmatic leader of an Elven band of thieves.
A scuffle to prove who's "the better thief" transforms into more than Anya and Ithilnin ever bargained for. They retrieve the missing piece of an ancient poem, before getting caught in the secret dealings of a megacorporation. What they uncover threatens to alter the very essence of not just human life, but the other side as well.
Elven intrigue, cyberpunk action, and a deadly dose of danger come together in The Other Side of Life [Book #1 in the (Cyberpunk) Elven Trilogy].
Genre: Urban Fantasy / Cyberpunk / YA with adult crossover appeal
* Recommended for adults or young adults seeking cyberpunk themes (not hardcore sci-fi), and a love story (not fluffy romance).
* This novel features a third-person omniscient point of view (inspired by the POV of Leo Tolstoy's novel, Anna Karenina).
===
* {Book #2 in the series--The Darker Side of Life--and Book #3 in the series--The Arcane Side of Life--will be available in early 2012. Laer (the dark elf in Book#2) makes an appearance in SKINS--a free eBook short story now available on Jess's website!}

Praise for Jess C Scott/TOSoL:
"The notion here is intriguing..."
-- Garrett Hicks, Will Entertainment
"Dear Jess: You are a very good writer--I like your plotting, your concept, the characters...pretty much everything. You are very gifted."
-- Dr. Uwe Stender
"The Other Side of Life features a writing style that is professional and thought provoking, with good dialogue."
-- Roger S. Williams, Central NJ
"This novel has a fast pace, takes its storyline seriously, is loaded with suspense and evokes genuine emotion in its love story."
-- Matt Posner, author of School of the Ages
"I have to honestly say I was pleasantly surprised by The Other Side of Life. Not only was it extremely well edited, but the plot was more well written than some house published books I've read. Truly, this was an incredible fantasy novel and a series I'm hoping Jess C Scott keeps up with, because she's obviously extremely talented."
-- Review @ There's A Book
Excerpt:
"That's sad. How plastic and artificial life has become. It gets harder and harder to find something...real." Nin interlocked his fingers and stretched out his arms. "Real love, real friends, real body parts..."
