About the Author

Meet Adil Bhatti.

American-Pakistani author. Traveler. Foodie. Sci-fi devotee. Electric guitar picker.

Adil Bhatti writes stories that cross continents, cultures, and dimensions. His catalog includes young adult science fiction, investigative non-fiction on UFOs and ancient mysteries, and a line of ten bold Islamic notebooks. All works are published under his independent imprint, Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC, and available on Amazon worldwide.

The Story

The writer behind the books.

Adil Bhatti is an American-Pakistani author whose work crosses continents, cultures, and dimensions. With his home in the United States, he has lived, traveled, and eaten his way through Türkiye, Morocco, Dubai, Japan, England, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Spain, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and far beyond, and that restless curiosity shows up in every line he writes. Sci-fi shaped his taste early, space has stayed on his mind ever since, and the older the question, the more likely it is to end up in one of his books.

His catalog ranges from young adult sci-fi adventure, to investigative non-fiction on UFOs and ancient mysteries, to boldly designed notebooks for readers who want their stationery to say something. At the center of all of it: family, and food worth traveling for.

"Stories travel. The best ones honor both imagination and specificity."

That range is not an accident. Living across multiple continents teaches a writer that characters who feel most universal are usually the most specific, that wonder does not need permission, and that a good portal fantasy and a good UFO investigation are asking the exact same question from opposite ends: what is out there, and what does it mean that we keep noticing? When Adil isn't writing, he is usually chasing that same question sideways — jamming on an electric guitar, disappearing into a sprawling video game world, or letting a film take him somewhere new. Music, gaming, and cinema are not distractions from the writing; they are feedback loops for it.

Reading is its own lane. Adil reads widely across science fiction, history, and investigative non-fiction, and those reading habits show up directly in the work. His young adult novel Omar & Ali: The Key to Orulenthia follows two Muslim American teenage brothers who activate an ancient relic in Tangier, Morocco, and are pulled across space-time to a red-skied alien world. His non-fiction book Ancient Aliens to Modern UFOs: The Disclosure Revolution walks the reader from biblical UFO encounters and the 1561 Nuremberg event through to Congressional UAP disclosure hearings and the USS Nimitz Tic Tac incident. His ten Islamic notebooks carry Bismillah calligraphy on every one of their 200 college-ruled pages, designed for a new generation of Muslim readers who want their stationery to reflect their identity.

All of it is published under Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC, his independent imprint. All of it is available on Amazon in paperback, hardcover, and where applicable Kindle. The books are additionally distributed through IngramSpark to retailers including Barnes & Noble, Walmart, Powell's, Strand Book Store, Booktopia, AbeBooks, and independent bookstores worldwide. Writing is the main lane. Travel, family, food, music, guitar, games, and movies are the rest stops that keep it interesting.

Author FAQ

People ask. Adil answers.

Who is the author Adil Bhatti?
An American Pakistani writer based in the United States, publishing under his own imprint, Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC. He writes across sci-fi fiction and UFO non fiction, and publishes a collection of ten Islamic notebooks. The through line is stated plainly in his tagline: stories that cross continents, cultures, and dimensions.
Is Adil Bhatti a real author or a pen name?
Adil Bhatti is his name. He is an independent author who publishes his own work rather than through a traditional house, which is a different thing from a pseudonym.
What nationality is Adil Bhatti?
American Pakistani. His home is in the United States.
Is Adil Bhatti Muslim?
Yes, and it shows up in the work differently depending on the book. Omar & Ali has Muslim brothers at the centre without being about being Muslim. The notebooks are explicitly Islamic. Ancient Aliens to Modern UFOs has no religious angle at all beyond treating scripture as historical document.
Where has Adil Bhatti travelled?
Türkiye, Morocco, Dubai, Japan, England, and beyond. That restless curiosity runs through the writing, and it is not incidental that Omar & Ali opens in a Tangier antiques shop.
Why does Adil Bhatti write about UFOs?
It is a lifelong interest in science fiction, space, and the questions that have followed people since the first time anyone looked up. It comes out twice: once as invention in Omar & Ali, once as documented record in Ancient Aliens to Modern UFOs.
How did Adil Bhatti become an author?
By publishing independently rather than waiting for permission. He set up Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC and released his debut novel, Omar & Ali: The Key to Orulenthia, on June 28, 2025, followed by Ancient Aliens to Modern UFOs in December 2025.
Does Adil Bhatti have a publisher?
He is his own. Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC is his imprint, handling editorial, design, and distribution. Everything he has published comes out under it.
What is Alpha Leonis Production Studio LLC?
The independent publishing imprint founded and run by Adil Bhatti. Every book and notebook he has released is published through it, and distribution runs via Amazon and IngramSpark.
Why is it called Alpha Leonis?
Alpha Leonis is the formal designation of Regulus, the brightest star in the constellation Leo. Given a catalogue that includes a book about ancient civilisations watching the sky and a novel set under a red giant sun, the naming is not a coincidence.
What has Adil Bhatti published?
Two full length books and ten Islamic notebooks. The books are Omar & Ali: The Key to Orulenthia, a portal sci-fi adventure released June 2025, and Ancient Aliens to Modern UFOs: The Disclosure Revolution, a non fiction UFO investigation released December 2025.
How many books has Adil Bhatti written?
Two full length books to date, plus a collection of ten notebooks. Omar & Ali: The Key to Orulenthia is the first in its series.
What genres does Adil Bhatti write in?
Science fiction and portal adventure on the fiction side, investigative non fiction on the other. The notebooks are a separate line entirely. It is a wider spread than most authors run, which is one consequence of publishing yourself.
Why does Adil Bhatti write in such different genres?
The books share a preoccupation rather than a genre. One asks what if, the other asks what is documented. An author working with a traditional publisher would likely have been told to pick one.
Does Adil Bhatti write Islamic books?
The notebooks are explicitly Islamic. The books are not. Omar & Ali is a sci-fi adventure whose heroes happen to be Muslim, and Ancient Aliens to Modern UFOs has no religious angle. People buying for a Muslim reader sometimes expect all three lines to be the same thing, and they are not.
Why did Adil Bhatti write a book with Muslim heroes?
Because the shelf is close to empty. There is very little science fiction adventure where Muslim kids are the heroes rather than the subject or the lesson. Omar & Ali: The Key to Orulenthia is an attempt at what was missing.
Why did Adil Bhatti make Islamic notebooks?
The Islamic stationery that exists tends to be either solemn or aimed at children. The ten notebooks are the other option: bold covers, a straight 200 page college ruled interior, and Bismillah ar-Rahman ar-Raheem at the top of every page.
What inspired Omar & Ali: The Key to Orulenthia?
The comparisons Adil Bhatti names himself are Percy Jackson, Stargate, A Wrinkle in Time, Star Trek, Dune, Ender's Game, and Star Wars. The setting owes something to a life spent travelling, including Morocco, where the book opens.
What is Adil Bhatti's tagline?
Stories that cross continents, cultures, and dimensions. It is accurate to the catalogue: continents in the travel, cultures in the heroes, dimensions in both books.

Does Adil Bhatti do interviews or podcasts?

Does Adil Bhatti have an Amazon author page?
