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 – Embraces Imprint – Strange Magic

Strange Magic

by Linda Andrews

Strange Magic by Linda Andrews

Love is its own magic.

Dazzler Spitfire is an elf on a mission. She has until Christmas to pull herself together, keep her magic, and her life. She heads to Holly, a town devoted to Christmas and home to her best friend. Together, they craft a plan to stay one step ahead of those wanting to bring her in front of the North Pole Review Board for trial.

Todd Dugan knows magic only works for others. His divorce from Dazzler’s cousin proves it. He’s fine tending to the reindeer for the western leg of Santa’s midnight ride. When he agrees to chair the holiday committee in Holly, he’ll prove human technology is just as good as magic.

Neither counts on the Dugan family curse: When a Dugan meets his mate, the lights in Holly will fall dark.

On the eve of Thanksgiving, the town’s mayor demands a demonstration to prove the Christmas decorations are behaving as they should. The tech works until Dazzler shows up, bringing his ex-wife with her. Now the town is determined to reunite Todd and his ex-wife.

But Todd’s thoughts are on Dazzler. A single kiss decides his fate. Dazzler sets out to seduce him. Is he willing to risk their friendship for something more? His heart makes the choice for him. For a brief moment, he has it all—friendship, love, and magic. Then Dazzler loses her magical abilities and gets sick. Worse, in a freak sleigh accident, Dazzler reduces the town’s Christmas displays to ash and cinders.

Christmas is ruined.

And the town is demanding action.
