Synopsis

“We need hosts for our eggs. Live hosts.”


A delicate new alliance between Ea Nir’s people and the humans hinges on one thing: survival.

The Nepenthe will shelter and provide for these bipeds while both races seek a new home world. The humans, in return, will host Nepenthe eggs for their incubation period.

In theory.

The surviving humans huddle aboard the Nepenthe starvessel. Unanswered questions paralyze their capable hosts:

A clutch is how many eggs at once?
What does that mean, ‘locked in?’ To where?
Did she just say ‘venom??’

From among the fears of many, steps the curiosity of one.

Brave, reckless, or both, Alyss wants to be the first.

His first.

__
Host dives right back into the We Are Nepenthe universe with a shapeshifting alien doctor, a discovery-hungry human geneticist, and a marathon ovipositing spree. And tentacles. All of them.

But don’t worry—this is for Science.

A one-click read for adventurous explorers only.
