Archaelogists discover an alien library deep underground and are astonished to unlock its secrets with human DNA.They determine a race called the Saiph have left a database to guide human survival against a merciless and previously unencountered enemy called the 'Others'. Now that humans have found the Saiph, the Ohers will surely find them.

  • "As a fan of Jack McDevitt's archaeology based SF novels, I couldn't pass this one up."
  • "A good old fashioned science fiction military adventure for the young at heart."
  • "A really good sci-fi tale comprising political, military, and individual action involving interstellar war. A lot of action with a minimum of political skullduggery."
  • Discovery of the Saiph is PP Corcoran's debut novel and book 1 in The Saiph Series. In 2015 it became a number 1 best-seller in military science fiction in Amazon UK and Australia.
