A small mining town. A discovery of soulstone. Attracting all kinds of trouble—from grifters, killers, and a psychotic alien from outer space.
BLUE JUDGMENT is the second book in Spencer Hey’s genre-mashing hyperArcana series. It is part steampunk fantasy, part sci-fi, part western.
THe Cast

What Readers Say
★★★★★
I loved this book, it feels very different to the first but definitely shares the fast paced and exciting feel. The book is somewhere between, western, cyber punk, fantasy, sci fi… but it feels tightly woven and consistent. Complete and satisfying and yet I am very excited for the next installment in the series.
★★★★
Having read New World City, I was glad to see new areas of this world and expand its history. There is truly a lot going on… but, once again, what a wild and exciting ride it is. Fans of cyberpunk with some fantasy thrown in will enjoy.
★★★★★
I love a good ending and was not disappointed. I highly recommend.
★★★★★
The alien speak is not believable.
