The Legend of Kalaj

Following the tragic death of her powerful adopted son Skaluni, the weary elder Kalaj and her remaining tribe find themselves stranded on Ayash—a beautiful but brutal alien moon. Survival is already a losing battle when a desperate hunt goes horribly wrong, drawing the lethal wrath of Ayash's native spirit beings.

Now, surrounded by giants and vengeful monsters, the tribe's only hope lies with their former mortal enemies: the Howlers. Forced into a leadership role she never wanted, Kalaj must choose. Can she put aside her grief to guide her people through the deadly caves to safety, or will she abandon them to live out her final days in peace? The Legend of Kalaj is a gripping, fast-paced companion novella to the Skaluni series, packed with unique world-building, reluctant heroes, and creatures you've never encountered before.
