Twenty-five thousand people were taken from Earth and never heard from again. What happened to them?

After being delivered to undeveloped world Altaterra three hundred years ago, a new civilization of humans began. Originally high tech, now they live like pioneers.

Kaitja is a peacekeeper living a quiet life in the mountains with his apprentice Xitano. They're chosen to lead an expedition farther over the mountains than people have ever been. What they don't expect to find is an entire society of people previously unknown to them.

Atami is a dutiful, pragmatic member of his tribe until a bloodthirsty chief puts their entire clan in danger. Thrust into a leadership role he never desired, Atami struggles to keep his people alive and earn the respect of both followers and allies.

When these two cultures meet, the entire history of Altaterra is challenged. Those on the ruling council, however, would prefer those secrets remain buried, and will do whatever it takes to keep the discovery silent.

Fulfilling his lifelong dream of becoming a famous author just before he retires, Dale McClenning is transitioning from a job as a mechanical engineer in controls and project work into the exciting and glamorous field of being a world-famous author (still waiting for the last part to take effect). With his wife of 37 years at his side and encouraged by his 10 year old granddaughter, who is still waiting for the book inspired by her to be published, Dale plods on putting out hard science fiction works in that little appreciated field (everyone wants fantasy these days it seems). But never fear, Dale shall continue to write in the literary desert of Indianapolis until he is that genre specialty again is fully appreciated.
