Dr. Brink

The world arrived as unfiltered sensation before thought: the rhythmic shushing of waves, the distant cry of seabirds, the grit of damp sand under a palm, saltwater burning in the sinuses. Then a doctor, alone, on an unfamiliar shore.

The Dossier of Dr. Brink is a castaway’s first-person account of the days after a shipwreck leaves them stranded in a strange land, and the unlikely friendship, with a Sauropsian village chieftain named Scur, that follows. Chapters One through Five are presented here in full, exactly as written.
