The Chikondra Trilogy

Whispers From Prophecy

The Dil-Terra Interplanetary Alliance faces increasing interference into its affairs from the elusive Zeterons. Many officials in the galactic union refuse to accept the idea of Zeteron infiltration despite enemy plots and tactics that grow both more obvious and more menacing. While contending with doubters inside the organization’s own ranks, Alliance leadership must rely more heavily than ever on its dedicated diplomatic corps to prevent widespread destabilization and maintain tenuous peace.

Senior Field Minister Warnach Sirinoya undertakes one critical assignment after another. Mission perils assume new and daunting risks. A succession of disastrous incidents forces Warnach to reassess his lifelong dedication to an auspicious career. Can he possibly find the necessary inner fortitude to continue the vocation now threatening his newfound personal peace?

Confronted by unrelenting doubts and fears, he looks to his newly assigned advocate, Sandra Warner, for answers and finds relief from his burdens and balm for his spirit in her unswerving support. Full of fresh optimism and energy, Sandra focuses her attention on building a new life and a promising future in diplomacy. Career and personal demands arise to challenge her intelligence, her determination, and her faith. She also gives him something to ponder…a greater mystery than he can ever hope to comprehend.

As Sandra welcomes more frequent visits from angel spirits, disturbing questions mount for Sirinoya and his family. How is it possible that Chikondra’s most rare and sacred creatures have chosen to communicate with a Terran. More importantly, why?

The saga found in this series is rich with action – keeps one engrossed to the very end of the book, and eagerly awaiting more.

[The author’s] exceptional talent for developing characters and scenes in the story, along with a very keen sense for just the right amount of detail, helped to create very vivid images in my mind.

The characters are meticulously developed…
