Did You Attend the Nebula Awards Conference 2025?


You Might Have Received a Copy of the Award-Winning YA Sci-Fi Fantasy: The Pandora’s Box

If you were part of the 2025 Nebula Awards Conference, either attending in Kansas City or participating virtually through the SFWA’s interactive digital experience, there’s something magical waiting in your Nebula Book Bag:
📚 The Pandora’s Box — Book One of the Conjurer’s Prophecy Trilogy by award-winning author L.S. Franco.

As proud members of the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers Association (SFWA), we donated 100 physical copies of The Pandora’s Box to the Nebula Book Bag in celebration of speculative fiction, visionary storytelling, and our shared love of books that blend imagination with emotional depth. In addition, we offered unlimited digital access to The Pandora’s Box for all attendees via the Nebula Virtual Book Bag—no download limits, no DRM.

This year’s Nebula Conference was a beacon for fans, authors, publishers, and creators of science fiction and fantasy literature, and we’re thrilled to contribute a novel that merges both genres in a unique, fast-paced, and character-driven epic.




About the Book

The Pandora’s Box is a thrilling YA science fiction and fantasy novel filled with magical world-building, time manipulation, multidimensional politics, and emotional stakes. It follows the journey of Liam Hale, a socially awkward teenage boy who—on his 14th birthday—receives an encrypted message from his recently deceased mother and learns he is a demigod destined to become the next Keeper of the Seven Wonders.

This revelation launches him into a hidden magical world, where he must awaken his powers, uncover the mission that killed his mother, and retrieve the legendary Pandora’s Box to restore balance between good and evil. But that’s only the beginning.

Book Two – The Oberon Stone
In The Oberon Stone, Liam and his best friend Ada shatter an ancient prophecy by turning back time—accidentally collapsing the fragile veil between the Houses of the Living and the Dead. Their only hope is to retrieve a mythic relic said to separate both realms once again. But when Liam’s magical mentor, Andrew McCormick, is kidnapped by the dark sorcerer Montgomery Winifred, the stakes rise.

Book Three – The Temporal Scythe launches TOMORROW!
That’s right. The Temporal Scythe, the epic final book of this trilogy, is coming out June 10, 2025. In this explosive finale, Liam must retrieve a tool capable of restoring the shattered prophecy: the Temporal Scythe, guarded by the Olympian god of time, Chronos, deep in Tartarus, the Underworld’s darkest pit. He’ll face gods, monsters, and the Devil himself—fighting not just for humanity, but for the people he loves.

  Explore Epic Adventures. A throne that cost his mother’s life.  A prophecy buried through seven worlds. Magic, myth, and darkness. When Liam Hale receives a cryptic message on his 14th birthday, he is left with one choice: fulfill the mission his mother started. For that, he needs to embrace his demigod roots, learn his powers, and get initiated into the magical community. As dark forces grow, shattering the balance between good and evil, Liam must find The Pandora’s Box, hidden in the depths of the Eerie Forest, protected by the sinister Erlking. Accompanied by a fiercely loyal non-magical friend, a mage apprentice, and two bickering witch-twins, they embark on missions, decoding secrets, and stealing an ancient artifact under the protection of the great centaur Chiron.  But the deeper they go, the harder it is to get out alive.  Shop Now: https://a.co/d/hMhGo1U #FantasyBooks #yafantasy #darkfantasy #BookRecommendations #bookreviews
He Fought For The Light. You'll Wonder Who Cast The Shadow. Are you ready for it? A mission through Tartarus to face the God of Time. One’s last wishes propelling a walk with no direction. Hopelessness, bravery, and Doomsday. In   The Temporal Scythe , the final battle between light and shadow unfolds as the Megaverse stands on the brink of collapse. Liam and his friends venture into Tartarus, searching for the Temporal Scythe—the one hope to repair a broken timeline and stop the rise of darkness. But as the war intensifies, the boundaries between good and evil begin to blur. Who is truly on the right side? And as the weight of destiny presses down, the cost of fulfilling the prophecy may be more than anyone is willing to pay. Liam Hale is certain of his cause, but the deeper they go, the more ambiguous the outcome becomes, leaving readers questioning the boundaries of the two sides of the same coin. “Layered, luminous, and unlike anything in speculative fiction today.” - ARC Read...
