From a faraway star

By Ferdinando Simonetti

An alien colony ship appears over Earth in 1866 - and nothing will ever be the same.

The Kilrathi, lion-like settlers from a distant star, arrive seeking a new beginning. Instead, they find a divided America still recovering from civil war, where fear spreads faster than understanding.

For Claire Zadowsky, a fugitive with nothing left to lose, survival means staying invisible.
For Zhara nar Korith, a young Kilrathi torn between duty and curiosity, Earth is a world that challenges everything she has been taught.

When their paths collide, an unlikely alliance forms - one that could shape the fragile future between two civilizations.

But as tensions rise and mistrust deepens, coexistence may come at a cost neither side is ready to pay.

A gripping blend of hard science fiction, alternate history, and first contact, From a Faraway Star explores what happens when two worlds meet - not in war, but in uncertainty.
