The Orphan Race

Magic-wielding dragons await Earth's survivors on the exoplanet Zomenos-if mankind doesn't tear itself apart. Human life is scattered across a few dozen space stations, desperate for a second chance at a permanent home. The colony on Zomenos waits beyond a wormhole, yet the ground crews laboring to restore Earth clamor to see their efforts rewarded. The rift between colonist and restorationist deepens. Colony physician Marilina Chamorro is thrust into the heart of the conflict, forced to choose between duty and purpose, friendship and love.A coup pitches the space stations into rapid decline. Ties between station leaders splinter. The colonists depart for Zomenos under the shadow of new leadership. Dissent sparks between Marilina and the crew, leaving the group unprepared for a fresh confrontation with a powerful race of dragons when they arrive. The definitions of friend and foe are tested and rewritten. Loyalties fracture. New allegiances are born. The wrong choice could spell the extinction of Earth's orphaned race.The odyssey through the wormhole sets an irreversible collision of xenobots, space detectives, and dragons in the first volume of the ZOMENOS series.The Orphan Race is for fans of The Expanse series by James S.A.
