"Now you must do something much scarier. You must dare to be yourself. Live as you!" Detention is a character-driven ensemble novel about fighting for freedom against the tyranny of law. Hugo Rank, an empathic detective who longs for epic tales, interrogates eight young outlaws, arrested for rioting: Sanchx, a gender-fluid con artist, Bastian, an irreverent flame-dancing juggler, Alexis, an animal-liberating aristocratic outlaw, GrrBob, a mystic gorilla of a mad god, Nyx, a gnome who thinks he's a great wizard, Prudence, a ferret familiar seeking a life of purpose, Hal, a romantic bard, and Lega, an irascible untouchable fleeing slavery. Inspector Javos accuses the suspects of subverting the Restoration of Order - a rigid hierarchy of age, caste, gender, and species - by pretending to be what they are not. Only by becoming the roles they play can these young rebels escape from Schermer Jail. A novel for new adults about role playing and storytelling, Detention blends the band-of-outsiders camaraderie of a found family with the emotional introspection of literary fiction. The layered world-building is epic fantasy, the themes philosophical fantasy, the plot gamelit, and the characters grimbright. Based on real life.
