Orphans of Sturnus

by Harold R. Thompson

Orphans of Sturnus by Harold R. Thompson

Nothing they’ve told us is true.

They are the last survivors of the settlers of the moon Sturnus, forty children rescued by the benevolent people of the planet Janus.

Except Bear is starting to remember, and what he remembers is nothing like what he and the others have been told. Then, from nowhere, a glowing girl appears only he can see; and Bear begins to discover he has very special abilities.

So, what really did happen to the people of Sturnus, and what is Bear supposed to do when the people he’s told are his rescuers may in fact be the people who destroyed his world?

Ender’s Game meets the Singularity in an exciting story of self-discovery and courage.

“Thompson’s compelling SF tale follows Bear’s harrowing quest to find the truth about what really happened in Sturnus…Thoughtful and engaging science fiction.” — Kirkus Reviews

The End of the Tether

by Harold R. Thompson

The End of the Tether

The cost of freedom…

A Novel of the Battle of Yorktown

It is the spring of 1781. Encamped outside New York, General George Washington gambles on a daring plan to shift his army south to strike at the British forces of Lord Charles Cornwallis, entrenched at the tiny Virginian tobacco port of York Town.

Charles Cornwallis is frustrated by the conflicting orders of his superiors. Daniel Brattle, an officer of Lafayette’s Division, has begun to doubt that ultimate victory will come. Catherine Seawell, a Loyalist refugee from New England, searches for a home in a country she no longer recognizes. Sergeant Tom Martin, a British light infantryman, is resolved to simply do his duty without compromise.

The battle for independence hangs in the balance, and no one will leave York Town unchallenged or unchanged.

From the Battle of Green Spring to the storming of Redoubt Number Ten to the dramatic conclusion of the siege of Yorktown, The End of the Tether brings to life a pivotal moment in American history.
