The awards, which were judged by a select group of librarians and booksellers from around the country, were announced on June 26, 2015 at the American Library Association Annual Conference in San Francisco, Calif. Representing hundreds of independent and university presses of all sizes, INDIEFAB winners were selected after months of editorial deliberation with more than 1,500 entries in 63 categories. The winners represent the best work coming from today's indie authors and publishers.
In "Truth Insurrected: The Saint Mary Project," readers plunge into a sci-fi conspiracy storyline featuring former FBI agent William Harrison, a reluctant but admirable hero who finds himself hot on the trail of a major extraterrestrial cover-up. "Truth Insurrected" has also garnered Douglas accolades from BestThrillers.com, which listed him in April 2015 as one of 2015's Best New Mystery and Thriller Genre Writers.
"We are thrilled with the honor of the award for one of our science fiction novels," said Paul Garver, Co-founder of Geminid Press, LLC. "Foreword Reviews' INDIEFAB awards represent a mark of quality of which we can be very proud."
Geminid Press also recently announced the release of Douglas' latest science fiction adventure book, "The Outworlds: War Torrent" (ISBN: 9780692450048 eISBN: 9780990737193), which is the first in a series. In "War Torrent," ancient reptilian aliens clash in a war that is the start of a new interstellar crusade orchestrated by evil ethereal entities whose intent is radical genetic purification of the galaxy, and Earth's Stone Age humans are their next target.
The science fiction book draws on the mystery of ancient aliens, in particular, reptilian humanoids, and related conspiracy theories about their alleged, past involvement with humans and possible engineering of our genes.
