The first book of the Project Saga
It all starts here...
The plan always worked for the bloodthirsty Cerik, whose battle-bred claws and muscles made them the uncontested top predator on scores of planets–the radiation pulse from the supernova would turn civilization on the blue-white globe below into chaos within days, making for easy prey.
In Texas, in a wooden cabin where she’d hidden from regular humans since birth, telepathic Sharon Dae knew nothing could prevent humanity from becoming another tasty slave race–she’d read it plainly from the thoughts in the sky. A scout ship had crashed in her woods, but these alien Hunters would vaporize thousands just to keep any human prey from the fragments. She sensed a stranger, Abe Whiting nearby, hunting for debris with his computers and gadgets. Painfully, she realized she would have to learn how to lie and betray to get the prize away from him, even if she couldn’t escape the jaws of the Cerik herself. How could she know that this techno wizard would soon brave the collapse of the world, cobbling together fried scraps and pieces in an impossible rescue attempt for her, a strange white-haired trickster of a girl who slipped through his life for only one afternoon?
It all starts here, the first installment of a multi-volume, multi-thousand year tale of human destiny from the mind of Henry Melton.
Henry Melton, award winning author (2008 Darrell Award for Best Midsouth Novel, Emperor Dad and 2009 Eleanor Cameron Golden Duck Award for Lighter Than Air) is often on the road with his wife Mary Ann, a nature photographer. From the Redwood forests to Death Valley to the Great Lakes to Delaware swamps to the African bush, scenes out the windshield become locales for his tales. He is frequently captivated by the places he visits, and that has inspired this series of novels. Henry’s short fiction has been published in many magazines and anthologies, most frequently in Analog.
