Since I'm still in Nepal (but have returned safely to Kathmandu, and by the time you are reading this may be on my way home, depending on what time zone my computer thinks in), I'm not doing a full post. But I am delighted to participate in the cover reveal for Jemima Pett's Zanzibar's Rings, which completes her Viridian System series--a wonderful science fiction trilogy! I've had the privilege of reading the MS, and am so excited it's coming out at last! If you haven't read the first two books, get started now so you'll be ready for this one in February :)

A galactic crisis: the entire comms system destroyed. How will spaceships in flight get home? Dolores is stuck in warp with a very dangerous passenger, Pete gets his shuttle home on manual. How come anything in close contact with orichalcum fixes itself? Just flying through Zanzibar's Rings solves the problem, as the Federation's Fighters find, as they invade the Viridian System's settled planets.
This is the final book in the Viridian System series.

About Jemima Pett
Jemima has been writing stories since she was eight, and published The Princelings of the East in 2011. That led on to a ten-book series of the same name, written for older children (9 and up). Jemima reckons she read all of the science fiction in her local library, and most likes alternative universes, time travel, consequences of social change and unusual ideas surrounding alien species. Her favourite authors included Anne McCaffrey, Fritz Lieber, Poul Anderson, John Brunner, Robert Heinlein and Arthur C Clarke. These days she likes Becky Chambers, Lindsay Buroker, Kristine Kathryn Rusch, Clare O’Beara, M T McGuire, Jennifer Ellis… She also loves series – once involved with characters she loves to read their continuing adventures. She has degrees or diplomas in maths, earth sciences and environmental technology and would most like everyone to use their natural resources sustainably, since we only have the one planet to support us.
Jemima’s ebooks are published by Princelings Publications through Amazon, Smashwords, iTunes, B&N, Kobo and more. Her paperbacks are distributed from Blurb by Ingrams.

ReplyDeleteWhat an adventure -- and you still managed to post for this month's IWSG -- and highlight another IWSG author. Congratulations. I'm looking forward to reading more about Nepal -- my husband hiked there many, many years ago. May you have many more wonderful adventures!
