Welcome to the official site of best-selling author Homer Hickam.
Homer’s newest release,
Crater, is an exciting Young Adult novel set on the moon 120 years in the future! Already, teachers are having their middle school classes read it and it's popping up on summer reading programs for middle and high schools. For more, click on the cover above and find out about Crater and his adventures, the first in the Helium-3 series.
We appreciate the millions of readers who enjoyed Homer's classic memoir
Rocket Boys/October Sky and his three other Coalwood books and have
now become fans of the page-turning
Josh Thurlow World War II historical
fiction novels. Homer's latest is
My Dream of Stars, the memoir of space-flyer Anousheh Ansari, and
Red Helmet, a story of romance and mystery in today's Appalachian coalfields.
Thank you for supporting Homer's work!

books, including lesson plans and other resources for
