Can a Lost Rythan lose his moral compass? His friend dead from an alien virus. A child shredded by a monster he was too late to stop. What's the point of missionary work for a God who lets such tragedies happen? Ard Matthew has seen too much death. He leaves the Faring Guard, the Star Brothers, and all they believe and becomes a pilot on the outlaw planet of Windy-Go. He gets a cushy job flying two ladies and their bodyguard to a remote lodge, but assassins have sabotaged the flyer, and it crashes in the wilderness. Now Ard Matthew must rely on his Lost Rythan instincts to protect his passengers against bloodthirsty creatures, hallucinogenic fungus, and assassins determined to finish their job. Not all enemies are external, however. Ard Matthew must battle his own demons if he's to guide his charges to safety and himself back to the path of light. Exotic settings, detailed world-building, well-imagined cultures, intriguing plots, highly-developed characters you can root for (or against), action always in abundance. If the Star Brothers are involved, you know you're in for an exciting mix of spirituality and adventure. Colleen Drippé's novels are must reads for lovers of intelligent science fiction. Long may the Star Brothers series continue!--Andrew Seddon author of Wolf Wanderings, Farhope, Iron Scepter. Having first recognized Colleen Drippe's unique literary voice when I began featuring her regularly in my own magazines, I find that she has only improved over the years. Her style combines a descriptive sense reminiscent of Ray Bradbury and the poetic atmosphere of another distaff science fiction legend, Leigh Brackett. Her stories are often beautiful gems whose facets reflect character, subtle meaning, and movement, all while suggesting a bigger picture not immediately on display. --Pierre V Comtois, editor Fungi, the Magazine of Fantasy and Weird Fiction
