Halcyon: Book One of the Dawnfall Saga (Paperback or Softback)

Humanity was alone in the universe until we created the dinosaurs.

Centuries ago, humans engineered deinonychus dinosaurs and endowed them with intelligence. Ever since, the Human-Saurian Polity Alliance has spread into a galaxy seemingly empty of sapient life.

But on the distant world of Halcyon, that is all about to change.

Polity liaison Adara Lynx is used to remote postings. She built a career helping farflung colonies thrive. The mission to Halcyon seems routine until her boss reveals the truth: an alien artifact has made landfall on Halcyon and she’s being sent to make first contact.

One problem: Halcyon has banned humans from entry except in special circumstances. To get in she’ll have to partner with Chirp, a brilliant, prickly saurian intelligence agent.

Chirp knows firsthand the risks of venturing into separatist territory. For years she’s tracked a violent terrorist group that may have claimed Halcyon as its base. Adara thinks she’s jumping at shadows—until a terrifying encounter confirms the worst: The terrorists have made Adara and Chirp their next targets.

Surrounded by uncertain allies, the two of them must learn to work together to elude the terrorist forces. And they’ll have to learn fast: a figure from Chirp’s past is stalking them, someone who will stop at nothing to make sure neither of them reaches the artifact alive…

Halcyon is a dinosaur science fiction adventure with themes of survival and alien contact perfect for fans of Jurassic Park and David Brin’s Uplift Series.
