Bag om Kali's Children
Crash landing on an uncharted world is bad enough. Losing most of the crew as the ship sinks to the bottom of an alien ocean is even worse. And that's just the beginning. Ragged and terrified, the last few survivors--a fireteam of battle-hardened marines and an inexperienced civilian adviser--search for a way to contact the nearest inhabited system for rescue. But as they encounter the denizens of this world, they learn something remarkable. From the red reeds that cover the land to the ferocious predators that fear nothing, every living thing on this world is highly intelligent... and utterly hostile. Violence is a normal part of life. Murder and war are nothing more than a means to acquire food. Kindness is unimaginably alien. For the survivors, escape is not enough. They must also keep their technology out of the hands of the barbaric monsters around them. For the planet's natives have learned that it is possible to leave their world, and out there among the stars is the most prolific source of food they have ever known: humans. Kali's Children is a full length action adventure science fiction novel.
