Overview

A mysterious invitation from an old friend brings private investigator Richard, spaceship pilot Eddie, and travel guide writer Alannah to a gorgeous, bustling metropolis on a planet where the dominant species can literally smell fear and lies. Wenamak appears to be the picture perfect place, down to the finest detail, but dangers lurk beneath its pristine surface. When a flippant wendek undercover agent seeks assistance on a delicate job, the Colibri Investigations crew soon find themselves tangled up in a shady game involving a web of illegal trade and exploitation. Luckily, Richard's military training, Alannah's intimate knowledge of the local culture, and Eddie's tough attitude give the team the perfect edge to meet their client's needs... at least until they run into someone familiar whom none of them expected to see again. There's no planet too distant, no job too strange, for Colibri Investigations!

""Howalt writes in the vein of Becky Chambers, making this a hell of a good time. A lot is packed into this novella. I'm coming out of it broken and healed."" - Nathaniel Luscombe, author of Moon Soul ""A beautiful dance of characters with slices of life in space that keeps the pages turning and the universe feeling alive."" - Aden Ng, author of The Chronicles of Tearha ""The Wenamak Web is a well-structured novel that is balanced and deft, and (...) examines the social and political implications of inter-species relationships. Fans of science fiction with elaborately developed characters, a phenomenal conflict, and a stunningly imagined world will find this tale absorbing."" - Cristina Prescott, The Book Commentary ""In the third installment of the Colibri series, The Wenamak Web, Marie Howalt pulls the reader into a frantic dive into the underground of Wenamak, a wonderful planet where it's impossible to lie and yet nurses a very dark side. Clever, entertaining and full of action, The Wenamak Web is a wonder mix of science-fiction and old school hard-boiled crime stories. Totally recommended."" - Seb Doubinsky, author of The Sum of All Things, The Horror, and Paperclip ""Richard, Eddie, and Alannah are back again for another adventure. Howalt has created a casually inclusive world where disability is accommodated without fuss, difference is accepted, and second chances are granted. A light, easy read!"" - Si Clarke, author of the Starship Teapot series ""Colibri Investigations is the sci-fi series you didn't know you needed. It's a fun, and at times thought provoking ride with characters you can't help but fall in love with from page 1. Once you start reading, you won't be able to stop. If you're tired of samey sci-fi, Colibri Investigations is the breath of fresh air you've been waiting for, with a vibrant, carefully thought out world. If you like Douglas Adams or John Scalzi, you'll love this."" - Kathy Joy, author of Last One to the Bridge
