This is the first book:

It is best to read the books in sequence. Some references to events or information about a character, place or event might not be explained fully if mentioned or introduced in a previous book.

The Dusty Series is part of the Keltrian Universe. Chronologically, this story starts after Delta and Amity. It can be read as a separate entity to those series’ since it centres around a different planet and solar system.

However, there are links to events and characters who first appear in the Delta series, the Amity series, and the stand-alone story, At a Price. If you have read those books, you will have better foreknowledge if some of the background information isn’t repeated in this book.

Declaration:

~~ Adult Themes ~~

This book is part of an erotica science fiction series. It is NOT recommended for people under the legal age to access such stories, depending on the reader’s country of origin.

The books may contain what some people consider vulgar language, references to religious icons, violence, coercion, murder, and-or rape scenes. Some scenes may describe intimate heterosexual, bisexual, same-sex and-or group sexual activities.

This book DOES NOT contain descriptive scenes of bestiality nor coitus between humanoids closely related by blood.

Editing:

If you find any of my assumptions fabricated, I would like to remind you this is a work of fiction, and I have probably taken liberties with reality, as you know it. The humanoids in this story are not based on anyone I know or have read about.

Australian based dictionaries were used for reference, and Grammarly was used as part of the editing suite. The story was written in Microsoft Word.

If you find grammatical or spelling errors, they are not the fault of my editor or proofreaders who did try to fix my work. However, some mistakes are missed, so all errors are my own.

If my Australian colloquialisms or terms need clarification, or you just wish to correspond, I’m more than happy to answer your emails. You can send them to: kris.me2@inorbit.com
