I am a long-time lurker of this forum and I noticed that many are always asking about new science fiction books, stories, et al...
I wanted to share the links to the first two books in my YA space adventure series, titled THE RED ROVER. I am going to put the links to the first two (2) books in the series and their blurbs below. I would put the pictures, but unfortunately reddit isn't really the best for embedding pictures within posts.
The genesis of this book began sort of as a betwixt of Harry Potter meets Star Trek; a group of precocious teenagers embarking on an epic adventure throughout the galaxy. As I have been writing and developing the book series, the story has evolved for the better. I originally pitched this as a screenplay to Hollywood execs before realizing that the only way a story of this scope can work is by becoming IP first, so here we are.
Anyway, if any sci-fi redditors are interested in peeking under the hood, please feel free. You can even read some reviews of the book on Goodreads here: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/45305697-the-red-rover
Some like it, some love it, but the consensus [at least so far] seems to be that my story is a unique take on space westerns/space operas. Don't let the ages of the main characters fool you. This story is not strictly for young people. My book has also been professionally covered and edited.
THE RED ROVER: ORIGINS

Blurb: With their resources falling to critical levels, the Red Rover is compelled to land on a mysterious new planet to replenish them; where much to their collective surprise, the inhabitants of this world readily welcome them with open arms.
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
