Mike Maihack’s Cleopatra in Space series is absolutely delightful (he even made a Cleo TMS logo lady for us once!) and he was nice enough to offer The Mary Sue an exclusive 16-page look at the latest installment, The Thief and the Sword!

Cleopatra’s space adventure in the REALLY far future continues!

A mysterious thief has stolen the ancient sword Cleo recovered in Book One: Target Practice, and she’s determined to get it back. But her teachers at Yasiro Academy forbid her from risking her life, so she’s stuck at school, trying to adjust to her newfound popularity and responsibility. And when she learns more about the prophecy that names her the savior of the galaxy, she must go on a dangerous journey to find the time tablets that could decide her fate… before they fall into the wrong hands!

192 pages.

Cleopatra in Space: The Thief and the Sword is available for pre-order now but will be officially released April 28th. And find out more on the official Cleopatra in Space website!
