Klaatu Diskos series.
Tucker and Lia (The Obsidian Blade; The Cydonian Pyramid) join together in the end stage of their journey through the millennia and the final confrontation with the murderous Lah Sept; Tucker uncovers his own role in Lah Sept history. Pulling together elaborate strands of the first two books, this conclusion rewards readers with a surprising yet cogent and satisfying chronicle across time.

Klaatu Diskos series.
This second book in a sophisticated science-fiction series (The Obsidian Blade) focuses on Lah Lia, a mysterious girl from the distant future who, raised for ritual sacrifice, escapes her death when minister's son Tucker's sudden appearance through a time gate disrupts the ceremony. Book two further develops Hautman's complex constructs of scientific innovation as well as the evolution of humanity and religion.
