Short story Dragon Hunter in the Citadels of Darkover anthology

Robin Rowland 

My short story Dragon Hunter is now available in the Darkover Anthology Citadels of Darkover, edited by Deborah J. Ross

A young paleontologist arrives on the mysterious planet Darkover with what appears to be an impossible assignment, find out if there were ever “dinosaurs” or the planetary equivalent on the planet. He faces bureaucratic resistance and has to learn the basics of cultural sensitivity on this strange planet as he searches for both fossils and love on a seemingly alien world.
