The Burn Zone

A Haan Novel #1 / James K. Decker

After the revivors series I wrote two novels under the pseudonym 'James K Decker', this being the first one. I still think this one would make a good animated series one day. The narrator of the audio book, Jeannie Lin, did an amazing job.

The Burn Zone book cover

Humanity was starving and overrun until the haan arrived with technology that looked like salvation. Sam Shao, genetically altered to bond with haan infants, is pulled into a citywide chase after soldiers arrest the only father she has ever known and accuse him of smuggling a dangerous weapon. To save him, she has to trust a haan envoy, outrun a hidden enemy, and discover what both species are willing to burn.
