"The Eight Planets of Cycronox" & "First Contact" (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798278789468)

Two landmark stories. One universe-changing moment.
In this stunning double-feature volume, Daniel R. Bingamon brings readers to the birthplace of the Prosian-Human alliance and to the long-forgotten ruins that shaped Prosian history.
The Eight Worlds of Cycronox
Follow the Prosian deep-space explorers as they chart eight mysterious planets orbiting a distant star. Ancient Garapr'seēn relics, atmospheric machines, and impossible engineering lead them toward the greatest discovery of all:
a fully preserved ship from the distant past - the Akrati.
Arrival in Larotey
2105 AD. Earth attempts its first FTL jump... and fails.
The Explorator emerges far from home, dying and alone, until a Prosian rescue ship answers its desperate call. Guided to the lush world of Prose, the humans must bridge language, culture, and fear - and ultimately choose whether to return to Earth or help build a new city: Prosiana.
A perfect entry point into the SS Scavenger Universe.
Science fiction fans will love the rich world-building, cultural depth, alien language, and heartfelt sense of first contact written with awe and optimism. This volume is ideal for readers of interstellar exploration, xenolinguistics, and uplifting human-alien stories.
Categories: First Contact, Space Exploration, Alien Civilization, Galactic Archaeology, Hard Sci-Fi with Heart.
If you enjoy Clarke, Le Guin, or C.J. Cherryh - you'll feel at home here.
