AFA Finalist Award

Lose yourself in a mighty planet of adventure! Six main characters, their fates entangled, striving to survive. Ten clashing clans. A main saga in seven major stages, in 49 chapters holding more than 380 fast-moving scenes. Four teasers starting new stories in progress.

Bonus: You also get five novella-sized stories weaving in with the novel. You can find these stories in the Brain Wrecks collection, if you want to start there.

It’s all waiting for you in “Descending Road and its World”. Starship colonists from Earth landed on the planet Opo Bira Lima and survived for twelve thousand years. The planet kept a lot of secrets. Now the secrets are raising their heads.

Clans, dynasties, and cultures have come and gone, and now the world – called Tarnus by its human dwellers – leaks hints of potent, long-hidden, alien infiltration. Those with power try to find advantage in dealing with the aliens, but the creatures invade human minds and twist human biology. Conflict mounts, drawing clans, classes, and races into bitter underground war.

The author tells you in his own voice why he is writing this book.
