New Release – Otherworlds Imprint – Orphans of Sturnus

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

New Release – Thresholds Imprint – Talking to Trees

Talking to Trees

by Kathryn Sullivan

Talking to Trees by Kathryn Sullivan`

The trees are dying…

Jody Burns borrows her brother Peter’s silvery bracelet because it looks good with her outfit. She doesn’t remember it’s the key to another world—until a green-haired girl steps out of nowhere in the mall and asks Jody’s help rescuing her grandmother from a great evil.

Jody ignores Peter’s warning about the land on the other side of the Watcher—until the haunted tree pulls her inside. Suddenly, she’s trapped in a place where no one listens to her. And then her jacket starts sprouting leaves.

Return to the world where horses can be wizards, and trees talk, and an ancient evil is planning to destroy every last living thing.

Cover Reveal – Vagabond

Vagabond by Rhonda EudalyA new cover reveal for Zumaya’s Otherworlds Imprint!

Cover art by Tomislav Tikulin

Vagabond by Rhonda Eudaly

When music and time collide, Vagabond, a rock band on the rise from the present, are thrown into a future where music is strictly regulated by the government. There, they meet Outcast, an underground band of determined women fighting against the censorship, and together work to find a way for the guys to get home.

Then, while they’re recording, three members of Outcast are arrested, facing “rehabilitation” to eliminate their “antisocial” views on music and creativity. Without hesitation, Vagabond signs on to help the tiny group of rebels rescue the captives, even though it could mean never seeing the people they care about again.

What if the savior was the one who needed saving?

All Claudia wanted to do was escape the mistakes of the past and start over. But when she answers an ad for a medical officer on a merchant ship in the Fringes, the captain recognizes her and blackmails her into taking the job.

The Holiday’s Captain Bennet is amoral and has a short fuse. Claudia steers clear of him as much as possible, while at the same time trying to care for the crew he lashes out on. Then the rumors start that their latest mission is to a location Bennet won’t even share with the pilot.

The secret coordinates take the ship and crew to an uncharted system in the Fringes. To a planet that holds intelligent life, and despite the odds, also a humanoid one.

Bennet plans to use these aliens to climb up the power ladder at the borders of the Dominion. Even if it means placing the Avians into brutal servitude for the rest of their lives.

Can Claudia stop the impending exploitation of this newly discovered sentient species all on her own? Or is there a worse fate than blackmail waiting for her if she tries?

Most important for Pola—Who wants her dead?

We’re working on sprucing up some of our older titles not previously available in all our eBook formats.

Here’s a sneak peek of what’s coming soon!

Bad Day for the Home Team

Bad Day for the Home Team

by Alex O’Meara

What makes a man walk into a restaurant on a bright, beautiful Memorial Day afternoon in a small Arizona town, pull out a gun and shoot forty people before killing himself?

That’s what Sam Tryor is trying to figure out. Only he’s trying to figure it out from beyond the grave. Instead of a who-dun-it, this mystery is a what-made him-do-it. With the help of a gorgeous reporter, a world-weary cop, and his brother, Sam seeks the reason for his horrific crime, and his search leads him to a conclusion that is as disturbing for what it reveals about us as it is shocking for what it reveals about him.

 

Tough Enough

They come from two completely different worlds, and hers has danger in it. Is Matt tough enough to cope?
