Introducing DARK SANDS, the 2025 Aurealis Awards finalist for Best Science Fiction Novel:

Humanity has spent years surveying the depths of space, searching for another planet like Earth.

In Cahros, they might have found one.

Among the first wave of specialists deployed to the planet is Tarlo, a young and optimistic biologist who has spent his life dreaming of adventure among the stars.

When the team finally sets down on Cahros, they are surprised to learn that the planet is home only to a barren, lifeless desert. All is quiet.

That is, until night falls.

There’s something out there… in the sands…
