The Flight, the first book in the Den-Aronel Series, is a fantasy/science fiction story set on the planet Ryth.
After nearly two decades of war, Naval Captain Ariden of the Den-Aronel finally has what he's always craved—the simple blessing of being at home with his beloved wife Mira, building their life together and raising their three children.
Then the aliens arrive.
In a single devastating hour, their low-tech world is shattered by beings wielding weapons beyond imagination. Faced with an impossible choice—worship the alien god-king or die—Ari must lead his people into the wilderness with nothing but faith in the True One and Mira's unwavering strength beside him.
But how can a naval captain protect refugees on land? How can he keep the Den-Aronel safe when the new chieftain questions his every decision? And when alien hunters corner them in a deadly canyon, will Ari have what it takes to protect those he loves—or will he fail them when they need him most?
A story of love tested by catastrophe, faith forged in fire, and the courage to choose hope when all seems lost.
