First Contact Protocol is a hard-hitting novel that transcends fantasy and answers the unspoken question, what impact would first contact have on our core values, theology, and basic social structures? The Intrepid's mission is to enter the Perseus Arm and explore the planet Fardarra, which holds a strong possibility of life similar to earth. Focused on their mission the crew realizes only to late that they have encroached into the sovereign space of the Zin-tar. The crew of the Intrepid, quickly realize the antiquated and nearly forgotten protocols regarding first contact are sorely lacking. Earth is shocked and shaken by the news of the Intrepid. Dissension and a destabilization of the world parliament ensues. Ancient religions threaten a rebirth of the jihad, adding fervor to the already explosive situation. Both political and corporate leaders hungry for power and financial gain plot to instigate an interplanetary war. The social order of the Zin-tar is shaken as well when a ruthless cabinet member launches a sinister plot to undermine and discredit their ancient governing body, a political system ill prepared for such an assault.

The crew of the Intrepid must work with their new acquaintances to defy these forces and prevent a war in which humanity could be demolished.
