Project Dandelion: Life and Death has been a ten year work in progress, a thought exercise in the value of life and morality from vastly different perspectives. Last year, the thought exercise became a complete novel and has been through several rounds of editing and rewrites. You are reading my completed work.

Project Dandelion is told from the perspective of a young woman, Kyrsia, becoming an adult on the only human colony on the savage world of Baoli. Focused on surviving on the hostile planet filled with predatory spider-like terrors, Baoli has shunned most science as impractical. Kyrsia longs to join the kansho, a group of military elitist, but has long been told that she is "too small and weak" to be an effective kansho.

Then Kyrsia dreams of another world, changing everything she believes about life, death, and her past. She becomes entwined in political intrigues, mysterious murders, and a prophecy affecting all of humankind across the universe.
