PRE-ORDER THE SECRET OF THE SAPPHIRE SENTINEL
J. DIANNE DOTSON'S SEQUEL TO THE
NEBULA & BSFA AWARD NOMINATED NOVEL,
THE INN AT THE AMETHYST LANTERN
AVAILABLE IN EBOOK, PAPERBACK,
AND HARDCOVER FORMATS
“THE SECRET OF THE SAPPHIRE SENTINEL is a wild YA fantasy adventure that explores the nature of heroism in a world of magic and danger. J. Dianne Dotson (Jendia Gammon) gives us a powerful middle book of a sprawling trilogy that does not disappoint! Fun and fantastic!”
– Jonathan Maberry, NY Times bestselling author of ROT & RUIN and NecroTek: COLD WAR
“Much like its predecessor, The Secret of the Sapphire Sentinel is the kind of post-apocalyptic story we need in this day and age: one full of hope for the future. The ongoing story of Glimmerbright presents a future world that isn’t just survivable; it’s colorful, exciting, and brimming with life. Nor does this book ever talk down to its younger readers, tackling the difficult in-between teenage years when we aren’t sure whether it’s us changing dramatically or everyone else. Equal parts futuristic sci-fi, whimsical fantasy, and teen romance, this is a worthy successor to The Inn at the Amethyst Lantern.“
—Kara Dennison, author and journalist
"Ivana Akotowaa Ofori’s THE YEAR OF RETURN is a haunting, darkly evocative tale of the ghosts of the past, delivering a harrowing vision of history’s undeniable grasp on the present and the future alike."
—Kevin Wabaunsee, assistant editor at Escape Pod, former managing editor of the SFWA
A NEW FANTASY NOVELLA FROM
NEBULA & STURGEON AWARD WINNING AUTHOR

In a world that sits at the nexus of Gods and monsters, science and magic, the aftermath of a war has decimated the "First Gods," and the remnants of humanity try to pick up the pieces. But when conflict arises again, a found family of monsters, demi-gods, scientists and magicians will come together to try to save what they love and bring a new magic to their dying world.
Iris has chafed at a life spent in the service of the Archmagus, the man who rescued her as a child and the only father she has ever known. But when she meets a charming thief while carrying out one of the Archmagus' many searches for magikal artefacts, she realises it will not be enough for her to simply escape the Citadel and her acerbic adopted family of the Aello, its winged guardians. The Archmagus has lied to her about her past, and the truth she finds will lead her to make a choice. Stay on the path she'd imagined for herself as an unwilling member of a family of monsters--or follow the consequences of her unbearable truth to the unexpected.
Destined to be a
Classic of Indigenous Futurism
As Many Ships As Stars is a sci-fi retelling of one of the stories about how the Numunu (Comanche) acquired horses.
In a future where Earth is ravaged by the greed of the wealthy, one woman's desperate act of defiance becomes a journey of transformation and decolonization.
Leia Wurahapt, a resolute Numunu woman, struggles to support her extended family in near-future Albuquerque. As head of a large household, she balances the weight of her ancestors' wisdom with the harsh realities of a world teetering on the edge of collapse. Working for a private corporation that exploits public resources, Leia finds herself helping construct escape ships bound for Mars, a last resort for the world's elite to flee their self-inflicted crisis.
​
But Leia has other plans.
​
Fueled by a fierce determination to protect her loved ones and reject the colonial structures that have oppressed her people for centuries, Leia and her former sister-in-law, Olga, hijack one of the ships. With their family and friends in tow, they embark on a voyage to the stars aboard The Futura, leaving Earth behind forever.
What follows is an epic, multigenerational tale of survival, resilience, and rebirth spanning 30,000 years. As Many Ships As Stars invites readers to reimagine progress through traditional ways. Weyodi OldBear weaves a visionary narrative that is both a tribute to her heritage and a bold vision for the future.
