Welcome to Galileo Academy
When Pernelle Elliot unexpectedly gets into the most prestigious secondary school in the world, she leaves her home in the prairies for a small island in Nova Scotia, where Galileo Academy dwells in mystery, at the bleeding edge of modern technology and innovation.
Set in the year 2054, Book I of the Astronomer’s Creed Trilogy follows Pernelle and her fellow students as they navigate the many secrets of Galileo Academy and Othello Island.
As she adjusts to the deranged workload, her wealthy classmates, and a faculty comprised of the world’s most influential scientists, she develops a dark fascination with their headmistress; a brilliant and terrifying young Astrophysicist, known for her controversial research and unparalleled brilliance.
As Pernelle gets swept up by her own suspicions, she begins to uncover disturbing evidence about one of the school’s most classified projects. It doesn’t take her long to realize that the Earth spins a little different for the scientific elite.
Follow along if you enjoy dystopian near futures, boarding school fiction, queer awakenings, forbidden love, and the dark underworld of private academia.
Reader Reviews
“When I curl up with a coffee and read Astronomer’s Creed, it gives me the same magical feeling I got as a child living in a cabin on the west coast and reading A Wrinkle in Time.”
— Chloë, Nurse
“I am genuinely, deeply impressed. In my own estimation, I am a sharp critic of good writing and feel that I rarely come across it, but I have once again come across it in yours. Congratulations. I hope for many readers the joy of finding your story and diving in themselves. I truly cherish it.”
— Braden, Actor
