Summary
In the narrow band between eternal day and endless night, humanity survives on a world that was never meant to be home.
Eight centuries ago, the colony ship Stellar Horizon drifted off course and crash-landed on Duskara, a tidally locked planet where temperatures soar to 400°C on one side and plummet below -150°C on the other. The descendants of that crew have not merely survived—they have adapted, evolved, and thrived in the narrow Twilight Belt, where constant winds shape civilizations and psychic abilities awaken in those who listen to the planet's rhythms.
Tales from Duskara is an ongoing collection of short stories, novelettes, and novellas set in this harsh but beckoning world. Each tale explores a different corner of Duskaran life: weatherworkers guiding settlements through superstorms, Deepkin navigating ancient cave systems by geothermal light, traders braving the Storm Wall, and explorers uncovering the mysteries buried in the Deep Roads.
These are stories of resilience and communion, with the wind, with the land, with each other. They are planetary romance in the tradition of Burroughs and Brackett, reimagined with solarpunk sensibilities.
