More About This Title When All Hope Is Lost
- English
English
The women of 2029 faced a terrible crisis when a pandemic killed all adult males, but they survived and now, twenty years later, they are once again starting to thrive. The problem is that the disease continues to kill males as they reach maturity and there's no cure in sight. Having adapted to a world that is no longer dependent on men, is it time to change history to her story?

Just who do you think you are?
Alyce Elmore got tired of being asked that question, deciding instead to write about it. Her short stories and novels search for answers by scavenging through time and place, exploring the real and the fantastic and along the way encountering the outrageous and the mundane. She has lived in major cities around the world, journeyed through jungles, hiked in the mountains and currently resides in an off grid shed in the middle of nowhere. To date, she has no answers, just lots of clues but she invites her readers to hitch a ride anyway because a search for the unknowable is in itself an enjoyable quest.

"Exploring themes regarding political autocracy, equality and human rights, this novel is a thought-provoking read. It’s rich descriptions of its social and political settings and its fresh, relate able characters determined to stand up for freedom make it absorbing, as does the tension that builds throughout."
BlueInk
"Set in a troubling future, When All Hope Is Lost is a mystery laden text in which all men disappear young, leaving women to direct humanities path alone; it raises awareness concerning the significance of people of all genders.
Forward Reviews
What I thoroughly enjoyed about this first book in the The Angels Have Tread trilogy was that the author managed to take this somewhat overused idea of women ruling the world, whilst men are reduced to playthings, servants, and of course, breeding apparel, and make it worth reading. That, in itself, is no easy feat. Because if you think about it, every story has been told before, in its more bare form, at least. So to be able to adapt and shape that skeleton of a story, and still make it interesting - now, that's saying something.
