Authors work really hard, pouring all of themselves into creating their passion projects and achieving their dreams. One thing that I want to do is to help authors to reach a wider audience and make more sales. Something very important for all authors, is receiving reviews. Reviews on Goodreads, Amazon, Waterstones and other shop websites help authors to find even more readers. Sometimes authors will run deals such as offering their book for free or for a cheaper price so that readers can access their books and review them for others to find. In these indie showcase posts I am going to share some of these books. Please check out any books that you are interested in and leave reviews online! See other indie showcase posts on my
book lists page.
Broken Bells (The Midnight Light Chronicles)
What guides our fate? Should we allow ourselves the dream of ever seizing control? Conspiracy. Vengeful aliens. A tyrant looking for redemption. Multiple timelines, one terrible secret!
Dasjenya hates his society’s powerful overlords. In an effort to prove the Aosha in no way merit the right to bombard whole civilizations out of existence, Dasjenya gathers a scientific mission and heads into our planet’s forbidden wastelands.
Strange voices chant warnings, reality shifts and falling meteoric debris obliterates every trace of the world he has ever known.
Flung into the past, he must now embrace a new role within an elite and thriving Aoshan culture. In fact, Dasjenya must now work alongside a younger version of the very Aoshan whose future autocratic ways forced his journey.
To save Earth, can Dasjenya—for all our sakes!—close the gap between who he has been and who he must be?
Part quest novel, part post-apocalyptic time-travel adventure and part love story set in humanity’s near future, this story of human courage will thrill readers who have enjoyed C.J. Cherryh’s Wave Without a Shore, Julian May’s The Many-Colored Land, or Sheri S. Tepper’s The Gate to Women’s Country.
From the author of Many Moons, Lesser Beings, and Cross the Sky.
Fifty years ago, Captain Nina Brooke hand-picked a crew from across the world to accompany her on the mission of a lifetime. Today, they’re all waking up. The Posterity is making her final approach to their new home planet, and the work is about to begin. Humanity wasn’t an endangered species when they set off on this mission, but it’s a darn sight closer to being one now. No pressure, then.
The new planet seems perfect; plenty of resources, good settlement locations, habitable climates. After what happened to Earth, Nina is conscious that they need to take better care of this one. It takes all sorts to make a world, and Nina’s got all sorts asleep in her cryobay; not only the people required to build it, but the ones to make it feel like home, too. After all, what good is saving humanity if you leave the best parts of it behind?
Some people find it easier than others to start new lives here on the other side of the galaxy, but then, it all depends on what they left behind. As Nina navigates relationships old and new, will she finally find the one thing she’s never had: a home?
The Awakening of Artemis
A stunning thriller set in a world where the elites make the rules and artificial intelligence enforces them, The Awakening of Artemis is a remarkable story of one woman’s personal journey with enough plot twists to keep readers guessing to the very end.
Set in 2049 America, it is the story of Diana Gutierrez-Adams, a U.S. Space Force officer and war hero. She is tasked with retrieving her cryogenically frozen grandfather from a remote region outside the “pods” where 90% of the population live. When she and her military unit are captured by a domestic militia, she is caught up in a conspiracy that reaches higher than anyone can imagine.
To evade a devious enemy who is one step ahead of them at every turn, Diana must outsmart a global monitoring system that tracks her every move. On a trail littered with the dystopian remains of middle-class America, she comes face-to-face with an artificial intelligence that threatens the future of all humankind.
