SlenderWolf Conflicts and Alliances

Book front cover - a view of planet Earth from space - the top two thirds of the cover show outer space in black - the lower third shows cloud cover of about 20% revealing a mix of greens and blues, and indistinct divisions of land and sea - the horizon is prominent with various shades of hazy blues and whites. - All in capitals, in white, the top boldly proclaims SLENDERWOLF as one word - in place of the letter O there's a graphic representing the paw print of a wolf - below that, in a slightly smaller font, the remainder of the title says CONFLICTS AND ALLIANCES - There is no sub title -Overlaid in white capitals across the bottom of the cover is the author's name SCOTT ROCHESTER - Super imposed on the black in the centre of the cover, slightly over to the right, is an image of a graceful, ghostly, white horse appearing to emerge from the cover - the head, neck and forelegs are clear - the body becomes progressively vague as it disappears into the background - the hind legs cannot be seen.

Book 1 – SlenderWolf Conflicts and Alliances was released in November 2025. It is being serialised on this blog throughout 2026.

Dominated by horses and ships, 400 years in the future looks a lot like 200 years in the past. No oil, no cars and no internet. Youngsters all typically wear white T shirts, blue jeans, and soft Espadrille shoes, that’s all cheap and readily available.
