What is Almagest?
Almagest is a series of books for teens based in the future (the year 2274).
At this stage, Earth is an uninhabitable ice wasteland and the majority of the Human race is now living on or around Earth’s moon (save for some small colonies still residing on the frozen planet).
Though, it has become apparent that with each passing year the Earth is becoming increasingly unstable. It is quite literally breaking up.
The first book introduces us to Keejana Brooks, a strong willed and very opinionated space captain. Keejana has been chosen to cart a load of Human refugees across pirate ridden territories to a new home.
But not all is as it seems when Keejana and an alien ambassador are taken hostage by space pirates. And as things unfold she finds herself stumbling upon their plan to overtake this shipment of refugees and take the land for themselves.
But that isn’t all.
For this planet with which they endeavour to land on holds some its own secretes. Not only is it inhabited by two already known species- not all of whom are happy to have the Humans there- but it still shows the scars of a vastly powerful enemy, that threatens the lives of everyone involved…

I'm thinking HarperCollins they're the ones I hope will take it. But at this point anyone will do. I have to edit the hell out of it first I'm not looking forward to that :hmm: I'm not a fan of editing. How are you doing? Have you published anymore of your books cause I can only find the two and I thought you did a third one.

"Welcome to the 'real' world...

It is the year 2054 ... and as the chills of Big Ben's echoing midnight chimes die out, all is not well and London, capital of the world, harbors a deadly secret that is about to be revealed. The safety of the world and the future of our country, relies on three unsuspecting characters. The journey they will follow will be dangerous, gritty and test the limits of their already jaded characters, and will ultimately keep, destroy or help them find their destiny. This is not happy families. The following events will bring terror, pain, destruction and a deadly secret that lies in the DNA of each and every one of us. A secret that the world is not ready for. This is modified reality."
