Azael is a young dolphin with a singular purpose: to survive.
When her pod is destroyed in a brutal netting operation, she escapes but her mother is killed, and the ocean itself feels forever changed. Filled with grief and rage at the humans who slaughter her kind, Azael dreams of revenge.
But the sea has other plans.
Deep below the trenches, ancient aliens have taken refuge on Earth. Their technology grants Azael the gift-and curse-of telepathy. Now she can hear the frantic chatter of fish before she eats them, the hunting whispers of sharks below, and even the minds of humans above the waves.
Those aliens need her help. A disaster of cosmic proportions is racing toward Earth, threatening to wipe out all life, land and sea alike. Only Azael can carry their message to humanity.
But to do it, she must cross an impossible barrier of fear and hate, and befriend a young human girl named Tayle, whose innocence and wonder might be the only bridge left between their worlds.
Dolfin Tayle is a sweeping, emotional fantasy with a science-fiction edge, a story of loss, revenge, hope, and the desperate fight to save a planet where even enemies must become allies. Perfect for fans of Watership Down, The Plague Dogs, and first-contact adventures with a heart.
What readers are saying: I love any story that centers around dolphins! The fact that it was also sci-fi made it more enticing. I was not disappointed. Dolphins being able to communicate with humans and assisting them to save planet Earth was right up my alley. The story was simple to follow along and kept me riveted. I recommend this book to any sci-fi buff or animal enthusiasts. -Amazon reviewA delightful fantasy fable by two of my favorite authors. Dolfin Tayle is about the saving of our world by a combination of sea creatures, needy aliens, and dedicated scientists. The underlying theme of saving our beloved dolphins, whales, our reefs, and other endangered marine creatures from greedy destruction is well integrated into the story's final resolution. An adorably enchanting read. -Amazon review
Anything with Piers Anthony has my vote! This was a realistic tale (considering dolphins and their intelligence). I love the sci-fi slant with the aliens living under the sea and the sea creatures coordinating efforts. GREAT read! -Amazon review
It was great story that my daughter and I enjoyed reading together. It made a great story to read with my eight year old daughter. Just forewarned there are some bad words. Other than that, we loved hearing about the dolphin and a girl working together to save the world. Because of this story, we discussed about only buying dolphin safe tuna because my daughter didn't want any more dolphins being caught in nets. Kind of like our favorite dolphin, Winter, who was also caught in a net. -Amazon review
Cute little adventure tale for young and old alike. This story is of the quality you would expect from Rain and Anthony. -Amazon review
Absolutely original and very interesting! -Amazon review
