Dark World, Book Eight in the Xandra series is available soon from Melange Books
Iceworld. A savage world of high, rugged mountains, huge savannahs with tall grasses, wild forests, and myriads of long, wide rivers snaking through flat lands and mountains that empty their turbulent waters into huge, deep lakes. It is a world plagued by vicious thunderstorms, hurricanes and torrential rains in the summer and by violent snowstorms in the long winter. One would think that nothing could survive on such a planet, but it is inhabited by ferocious beasts and a race of intelligent savages, the Sras. The Sras are not the only inhabitants. Explorers from a race of space faring aliens became stranded 1,000 years before humans set up their research station on Iceworld. Their descendants grew in numbers and spread across large areas of the planet. They are the Jnaar, and they have become nearly as savage as the Sras. Both races live much of the time in the tunnels and giant caverns below the surface of Iceworld. Thirty-five humans live inside the research station. When one of the scientists, Regina Seagul, is abducted by a group of Jnaar, Rob Cameron, Rudi Malone, and Irwin Hunter enter the dark underground world in search of the missing woman. Accompanied by Raaskar, a Jnaar male and his mate, Laneea, and their daughter Raas-ini, they travel to one of the underground Jnaar cities, where they hope to engage the help of the Jnaar in their search. The three humans discover an entity the Jnaar and the Sras call the Dark Goddess.
