Does anyone know any books that have a main or side character that has asperger's syndrome and has LGBTQ representation? I have read The 57 Bus but I was wondering if there were any others out there?

Search for the first book in a planned series titled Heroes of Karth: The Curse of the Undead written by Grant Hamilton and edited by Ed Winters. There is also a card game published based on the book. It is well written and edited (probably for ages 12+). The related web site is <http://heroesofkarth.com/>.

The book is available in trade paperback for $20.00 at Amazon.com and BN.com. The e-book version is available in all formats for $0.99.

Grant is LGBTQ friendly and loves his autistic son who is the basis for one of the book's characters. :D
