What if dinosaurs had their own civilization?

For thousands of turns in the ammonite’s shell, Iara’s kind-feathered dinosaurs, or avians-resided peacefully in enclaves called Oases on the western shores of a flooded continent. That is, until the tyrants sensed a shift in the world, and longed for the hidden power of the ammonite. The ammonite’s magic was a secret guarded by the avian Clepsydra for generations. The tyrants seize the news of the dying Clepsydra as their chance to conquer what remained of the Oases the avians treasured. Iara is tasked to become a Warriorfeather by Clepsydra…will she protect her kind and herself against all odds?
Iara’s Crossing is a riveting tale about a feathered dinosaur discovering herself, her purpose, and the power of love. Action-adventure, high fantasy, and dinosaur paleontology converge in this one-of-a-kind story that will leave you wanting to know more until the very end.
