“Thrilling!” “Suspenseful!” “Survival Skills!”

The Tellurians, a work of speculative fiction, sweeps us into a world of heroes… past, present, future and turns the reader into a problem-solver, a critical thinker, and a dreamer.

“Kim Nguyen had applied to the Astronauts for the Colonization of Mars Program thinking that she had one chance in a million of being selected. The problem was that Kim had won that chance in a million.”
