The Orion Trilogy

Two Rivals. One Meteor Shower. Constellation Powers

Book cover for 'Orion' by Travis Johnston featuring a starry night sky, the constellation Orion, a glowing blue crystal on desert ground, with cacti and mountains in the background.

Michael Stone never wanted attention. Ray Simmons thrives on it. Both sixteen, they couldn’t’ be more different. But when mysterious Star Stones fall from the sky, both of them are transformed into something more than human—faster, stronger, able to fly.

While Michael hides his abilities and tries to do the right thing, Ray is pulled into a world of fame, power, and dangerous temptation.

But they’re not alone. Others have been changed. And one ancient enemy is hunting them all, determined to claim their power and become something unstoppable.

Michael and Ray might be exactly what the world needs to be saved... if they can stop fighting each other.

“I absolutely loved the book. It really kept me engaged the entire time, and I couldn't put it down until I had read it all! Can't wait for a sequel!”

— Steven

“I love how the story developed and the characters grew together. I often try to guess what will happen next, but it was spontaneous. I couldn't put the book down because I wanted to know what would happen next. I think I'll have to read it again starting now.”

— LaRue

“With a unique magic system and an intriguing writing style, this book was a great read from cover to cover. I'm excited to pick up the sequel as soon as it's released and would highly recommend it.”

— Sterling

“I am an older reader who enjoyed the unpredictable plot twists and turns. The inclusion of astronomy, constellations and sci-fi powers really is a wonderful combination of possibilities.
I like the just enough info to visualize what is unfolding but not so much detail as to bog down the story line.
I look forward to more books in the series.”
