H.H. MAIZER
The Silence of Orion: The Sagan Standard
Book Four of The Reaper's Dharma · H.H. Maizer
Concealment only holds as long as uncertainty does. In the fourth installment of The Reaper's Dharma, Fred discovers that the forces around him no longer seek a confession — they seek calibration, narrowing the space he has left to hide. One principle governs everything that follows: the Sagan Standard — extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence. A science-driven descent into contact, identity, and the vast silence where Orion keeps its secrets.
