Exhibitant

By Tim Northburg

Zookeeper Alex Mills is abducted toTellurion, a vast alien construct orbiting a distant star, where Earth's creatures-past, present, and future-are preserved in sprawling habitats. Betrayal cuts deep when he learns Iona, a fellow exhibitant he trusts, is secretly his "keeper," and his long-lost father is alive-now the ark's Prime Director. Struggling with rage and doubt, Alex teeters on the edge of despair. When a mysterious extinction event begins wiping out species within Tellurion, Alex discovers his rare ability to communicate with animals that makes him invaluable to Tellurion's overseers, the Intergalactic Alliance. Tasked with a grim order: cull every lifeform to prevent total collapse. Alex refuses to accept this fate; he proposes a daring plan-to relocate Tellurion's creatures to Orlea, a distant, habitable planet. But leading an exodus of humans and animals across the stars requires more than courage. With Iona and an unlikely family of abductees at his side, Alex must confront his past, unite strangers and species alike, and guide them to a second chance at life. Their journey offers hope-but only if humanity can avoid repeating the same mistakes that doomed Earth.
