A Little About xO:

Somewhere between fanciful places and the world one knows is the universe of x0, where an ancient organization stays hidden while seven billion people lead normal lives and seven hundred or so do not. This latter group includes Lola, a Texan geophysicist who doesn’t believe in nonsense, and Somadina, a young Nigerian who thinks her abilities are perfectly normal. These women have at least two important things in common, and they are about to learn how well that will forge a powerful link. When Somadina’s sister becomes a captive, the young Igbo woman draws upon her telepathic powers to find an ally. Across an ocean, an unexpected lay-off and a near fatal accident combine to reintroduce into Lola’s mind a rather disturbing phenomenon. x0 reluctantly emerges from the shadows, because somebody really needs to intervene. Both women are far more powerful than they realize, and to make matters worse, a fringe fanatic may be on the verge of altering a nation’s future.

About the Author:

Sherrie Roth grew up in Western Kansas thinking that there was no place in the universe more fascinating than outer space. After her mother vetoed astronaut as a career ambition, she went on to study journalism and physics in hopes of becoming a science writer. She published her first short story in Isaac Asimov’s Science Fiction Magazine, but when the next story idea came to her it declared that it had to be a whole book, nothing less.

What People Are Saying About xO:

“It was a fascinating book that as a bonus contained lots of factually accurate information about Nigerian history and culture.” –Matthew

“This book is a marvelous mixture of real life and fantasy for adults. The ‘magical realism’ approach is intriguing. I highly recommend it.” –Bobby Cratin

“The book is very well written and extremely edifying. You come to care about the main characters a great deal. So after we learn about the x0 and the effects on the characters, we then are thrown into quite a thriller scenario that has a great climax. Highly recommended for fans of both the Scifi and Thriller genre.” –Garp
