Testament of Leaves Coming Soon!
Coming in August 2026: “Testament of Leaves,” a new novella from Fairwood Press.
In the isolated thickets of a faraway planet, a linguist lies dead. Inscrutinator Shameesh Kulkarni must find out why. But no one wants to talk: not the prospectors searching for mineral wealth, not the archaeologists trying to piece together a ruined city, not the local schoolteacher, and certainly not the indigenous people whose language the dead woman was researching.
Exciting! Is this part of your Twenty Planets universe?
Yes! It is also the start of a series in which I get to reveal some things about the Twenty Planets that have always been true, but I’ve never had a chance to talk about them before.
