New from Zumaya's Otherworlds Imprint - 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

Our Story

Our second most important commitment is to the environment, which is why we choose to utilize ebook and print on demand technologies. Unlike the standard business model, where thousands of copies of each title are printed and warehoused, then shipped back and forth from warehouse to bookstore to warehouse to wherever, our paperbacks come hot off the press when you order them. We don’t accept returns, which limits our access to bookstores, but the waste involved in that process is unacceptable to us.

In 2017, Zumaya finally did what most other small digitally-oriented presses have done all along—opened our own bookstore. Our goal was to maximize the return on sales for our authors, and while we currently only offer ebooks we hope to be able to offer print as well by the end of 2018.

We invite all readers to visit our website and browse our catalog of superb fiction and carefully selected nonfiction. We’re sure you’ll find something you’ll like.
