EXCERPT #1 In this excerpt, Jessamyn Jaarda, who lives on Mars where there is only one dog, meets the Planetary Dog for the first time.
But something happened when Jess’s eyes connected with Rover’s. His eyes, light-blue like Ethan’s, caught her at once with their intelligence. Who are you? the dog seemed to be asking. He tilted his head from side to side, never loosing her from his gaze except to blink.
“The blinking is one of the ways he’s acknowledging you as being ahead of him in the pack,” said the Secretary. “Huh,” said Jessamyn. She wasn’t really paying attention, though. She felt a rush as something swept through her. A something that reminded her of taking her craft toward breaking day or of watching Phobos as the swift moon zipped across the night sky. The dog was . . . wondrous. A shiver ran along her spine. “Hi,” she said to the gentle-eyed creature before her.
