Spears Of The Sun (Star Sojourner Book 3) - Plot & Excerpts
I knew it for a predatory ground forest of planet Halcyon that was hungry for animal tissue and not above a meal of Homo sapiens. I'm an astrobiologist, and Halcyon is a feast of alien species. The planet's evolution is directed by Spirit, as he likes to be referred to in our telepathic conversations. Speaking of being called, he'd called me to Halcyon a year ago, along with Lisa, my young telepathic daughter, to rid his planet of a Terran ravager, the Dream Czar of Halcyon. I'd obliged, under duress, but that's another story. Lisa was safely back on Earth with her mom, my former wife, Althea. I missed my little girl, the way she'd throw her arms around my neck, clutching some leaves, and shout “Daddy! Daddy, look what I found.” And shove the poisonous leaves in my face. I chuckled, remembering, and squatted to poke a shiny anchored branch at the edge of the tangled forest of blackroot with the rod end of my stingler. The root twitched. Animal or plant? I was anxious to study it. If it were plant, then the soil might be nitrogen or phosphorous deficient and the species might supplement its diet with animal tissue.
