Shards of a Jealous Sky: A Sequel to Bright Islands in a Dark Sea

By L. Warren Douglas

Never before in print. Now, finally, you can find out what happens after Bright Islands in a Dark Sea! After centuries of domination by the alien Ferosin, Earth's humans at last challenge them--and the stakes are huge: in the short run, the Earth, and ultimately, the universe itself!It is an Earth reverted to oxcarts, oars, and sails (higher technology is forbidden by the alien ferosin who rule secretly from behind the fa?ade of a worldwide Church.) The tale begins with an archaeological expedition to the far north of a flooded North American continent, a land populated by bear-worshiping savages, and the wreck of an alien ship stolen by the ancestors of mutated humans, the Witches of Ararat, who once held the secret to the gestalt that was...a starship pilot. Yan Bando, reluctant tool of the crones of Ararat, is an antiquarian; he is husband of an apprentice witch, lover of a crazy scientist and of a mysterious plainswoman from a buried city in the western mountains. It's an adventurous life for a quiet archaeologist, even one who has been known to swing a battleaxe from time to time...
