Cosmic Warlord Kin-Bright
A downloadable poem
Of armours vast and woman lone I sing...
Cosmic Warlord Kin-Bright is a giant robot yuri space opera. It's about fate, awful warrior-nobles, and engines of violence. It's written in verse.
Cosmic Warlord Kin-Bright features:
- Sweeping scope.
- Poetry that’s competent.
- Shameless borrowing from Ideon, UC Gundam, the Aeneid, the Alliterative Morte Arthure, Baldios, Simoun, and a good steeping in both mecha anime and 1300 years of English verse.
- Technically it is gay? I don't want to oversell this, because this is not a story about kissing.
- The sight of a poet working hard for their accidental and somewhat baffling coterie.
Cosmic Warlord Kin-Bright has earned the following testimonials:
- ‘Read this if you like gay women in giant robots, warlords who get comeuppance for their bloodthirst, and the complex feelings when those are the same thing.’ — @SunshineMoonRX
- ‘girls will say “I know a place” and take you to see the horrors of the Underworld. this too is yuri’ — arienai.gay
- ‘i didnt even know that people could write giant mecha poetry… a whole new world has opened up to me’ — @thespacephantom
- ‘an interesting, fun, and often compulsively readable attempt to tell a mecha story in verse’ — @hecker
- ‘A giant robot saga in a poem was not something I knew I wanted, but what can I say; this was very good.’ — @TsuzukuCL
- ‘Can't believe Kin-Bright is genderbent space Aeneas’ — @Strider_ms
Cosmic Warlord Kin-Bright contains:
- Robotic space violence
- Obliquely mentioned transphobia
- The restless dead
- Animal sacrifice
At present, you can read the first clean drafts of books I to X, in PDF or EPUB format.
The talented digital artist Szkin created this project's cover image, taking inspiration from the boar's-tusk helmet design described in Iliad X and independently encountered by Bronze Age archaeology.

ladies, is it gay for a complex web of honor relations to compel your wife's relatives to fight for you
Scientists are saying it might just be.
