Books 'n Stuff
Not my books. But the covers are my work, and the books are pretty good if I do say so. You should check them out!
Shikari by Alma Boykin
Adventure! Exploration! Martinus the m-dog! Lost cities and conspiracies! Strange creatures! And homework.
Shikhari, the most-distant human colony world, home to the Staré and Auriga "Rigi" Bernardi. While on school holiday, Rigi and her cousin Tomás Prananda discover a ruined city hidden in the forest. Their find strikes a spark that threatens to upend everything humans think they know about Shikhari's past, and about the native Staré.
Meanwhile, back in school, Rigi's determination to do well collides with the nastiest bully on the planet, Benin Shang Petrason. His father has the faculty and administrators under his thumb, allowing Benin to run rampant. If that wasn't enough, Rigi's big sister has discovered boys. If it weren't for Martinus, Rigi's new m-dog, Tomás, and their eccentric Uncle Ebenezer, Rigi wouldn't know what to do.
But someone believes that Rigi and Tomás's find is too dangerous to report. And that someone threatens the children, their families, and their uncle. That someone has just met their match.
