Additional Information
Genres
The primary genres would be fantasy, then adventure, then sci-fi. Although the main cast is made up of mostly LGBTQ+ characters, and there is a queer romance subplot, I would not primarily categorize my book as an LGBTQ+ novel. Any book I write could fit that category, but the plot of this one has much more to do with anti-imperialism than it does gender and sexuality
Tropes
Without spoiling anything beyond the first chapter, I will say that the found family trope is one of my absolute favorites, both to read and write. Since the main cast mostly already knows each other, but grows closer on their journey, you could call it a re-found family
