Of Wind and Sand After leaving Earth, a human colony starts a new life on a planet they have baptised Mars II — currently occupied by the Darztls, a highly intelligent indiginous race of lizards. Although initial attempts are made to tolerate each others’ presence, both races quickly move toward mutual disdain, distrust and finally, acts of violence. As hope all but disappears - the possibility and promise of a cooperative future only exists in the minds a small group of humans and darztls who live and work together in a remote desert village. Could their collective vision be enough to create a new world? Download Chapter One today! Sylvie Bérard Sylvie Bérard was born in Montreal in 1965.

CM Magazine

"Well-written, the story will appear to the reader of science fiction as well as students of history, colonialism, and race relations. A gripping tale of the shock and misunderstandings arising when two very different cultures clash." — Ronald Hore, CM Magazine
