Blurb:
Long after a plague wiped out most of the population, humanity’s remnants cling to survival within cities surrounded by glass bubbles. They fear the deadly consequences of stepping outside without hazmat gear. Within these protective confines, Martina, a resilient sixteen-year-old from Colombia, struggles to support herself and her younger brother after the death of their parents. Martina’s days are a blend of routine tasks, adhering to strict medication regimens, and cautious optimism for a brighter future.
But when Martina spots a lone figure venturing outside the safety of the bubble, defying the norms with a casual confidence, her steadfast faith in the safety of their bubble city is thrown into disarray and she worries for her brother’s safety. She is determined to find the truth lurking beyond the boundaries of their sanitized sanctuary.
As Martina navigates the complexities of her enclosed world, she encounters unexpected allies along the way. Among them is Nathan, a charismatic nomad whose unconventional ways intrigue her, and Persephone, a determined student pharmacist with a shared desire for truth. As their paths intertwine, Martina finds herself drawn to the strength and resilience of both Nathan and Persephone, forging bonds that will shape the course of her journey.
Amidst the backdrop of their adventures, Martina discovers that the connections she forms are more than just fleeting encounters—they are lifelines in a world filled with uncertainty. And as she struggles to keep her brother safe, Martina learns that true friendship and loyalty are the greatest treasures one can find beyond the bubble’s edge.

The Huxian Fox
Unpublished – Submitted to competitions only
Captain Fan Sung has blown it this time. Not only was she caught stealing from a drug lord, she was also caught kissing his young wife. She needs to get to her ship, the Huxian Fox, and get off the planet—fast.
Princess Eshan’ya is running from The Quain. They have attacked the palace and if they find Eshan’ya, they will kill her. There’s no hiding on this planet, especially not when the royal guards are also looking for her and she doesn’t want to go back to the palace. She sneaks aboard the Huxian Fox.
As the ship enters space, Fan thinks she’s made a clean getaway, but she’s not impressed when she finds her stowaway – even if she is beautiful. She’s even less impressed when the Huxian Fox is attacked by the Quain and the Royal Fleet.
The Quain are intent on taking over the universe, but Eshan’ya plans on stopping them—if only she can convince Fan Sung to help her.
