As promised! We are excited to present the official front cover of Reunion: Book three of the Primogenitor seres.

To enter the drawing to win a free paperback on release complete these 3 tasks.

1. LOVE Primogenitor's post

2. SHARE with your own commentary or endorsement of the series(if you love it!) on your timeline, public or in a group.

3. Comment on the original post, "Tasks completed"

Image of a science fiction book cover. A man half in shadow, half in bright light, wearing a lab coat, reaches out towards the viewer as if about to open a door with the one hand in extreme close-up. He looks to be in a trance, eyes glazed, and behind him, through a foggy window we see grabbing hands and faces pressed to the glass. The title in bold strikethrough text says Primogenitor Book 3, Reunion, CL FORS.

Eleven years after the colonists settle in to their new home on Mars...

Earth ecosystems have grown unstable and a new threat to human survival is brewing.

When a foray into the city lands one of Theresa’s progeny in quarantine, their guardian on Earth, Dr. Richard Brant, must use this advance warning to fight a growing pandemic.

But with communication between Earth and Mars forbidden, reaching Theresa and getting the Progeny to Mars alive may be impossible.

The future of Earth, and the AUC Progeny, hang in the balance—as does the continuation of the human race.

We at Epitome Press are Writers and Publishers which means we wear many hats.

Editing is probably our least favorite hat because it is painful for both the author and editor... the process is essential and worthwhile but still painful.

What is your most and least favorite part of the process for turning out a finished product?

It's that time again! A new release is on the horizon, and you're going to want to keep your eyes and ears open for updates and news on this one. Preorder the E-book on Amazon now.

The massively talented Archer Miller's YA Science Fiction debut is the first in a multi-generational space epic series and is slated to release October 30th.

As you may know by now, Epitome Press does things quite a bit differently from other publishers...our process more closely resembles mentoring, facilitating, and loving our authors through their process until they are ready to release the best version of their own work! It's like capturing the most beautiful dragonflies and using a bit of gene therapy on them until they are ready for release into the wild.

We cant really take credit for how they glow in the dark and fly out of Earth's atmosphere into the stars, but we think you'll like the result.
