Characters
Alpha and Omega is brought to life by a cast of characters spanning two worlds, from the halls of a distant planet’s government to the backyards of a small farming town.
The Heroes of Plateo
President Karabe
PRESIDENT OF THE FEDERATED ZONES
The small, white-bearded leader of Plateo, Karabe guides his people through devastation with quiet wisdom and hope. His love for the extinct Plateosauruses sets the entire story in motion.
Reva
SPACE CAPTAIN, FEDERATED ZONES
President Karabe’s daughter, Reva is brave, warm-hearted, and fiercely devoted to her mission. She leads the search for surviving dinosaur eggs on a ravaged Dinosaur Island, and later returns to Earth to protect Alpha and Omega and make things right with the people of Glennview.
Ammone
HEAD PILOT & SPACE NAVIGATOR
A former fighter squadron commander, Ammone is calm under pressure and fiercely loyal to Reva. His steady hand keeps the crew moving forward even when hope seems lost.
The Kids of Glennview
Skeeter Davis
Boy Scout, age 9
Curious, energetic, and a little accident-prone, Skeeter is the first to spot Alpha and Omega and the one determined to prove his incredible story is true, no matter who doubts him.
Doby Anderson
Boy Scout, Skeeter’s best friend
Smaller but faster and more agile than Skeeter, Doby is the perfect partner in adventure (and mischief), sticking by his best friend’s side through every close call.
Sissy Davis
Skeeter’s little sister
Skeeter’s younger sister is nosy, talkative, and never lets her brother forget the trouble he gets into even when he’s trying to keep a very big secret.
The Grown-Ups of Glennview
Henry Garret
Scout Guide
A tall, easygoing guide in his fifties with a soft spot for photography, Henry leads the troop through the mountains and becomes an unlikely keeper of the boys’ secret.
Mr. Duncan
Scoutmaster & Local Pharmacist
Quiet and a little inexperienced as a troop leader, Mr. Duncan does his best to keep the scouts safe and in line, even when their stories get a little wild.
Mayor Stokey
Mayor of Glennview
A short, cheerful, cigar-chomping mayor who’s more than happy to welcome unexpected visitors, especially when they arrive bearing gifts for the town.
Mr. & Mrs. Carlin
Glennview Residents
A local farming couple whose barn (and livestock) bear the brunt of Alpha and Omega’s growing pains and whose lives are changed in return by an extraordinary act of kindness.
Alpha & Omega
The last of their kind, Alpha and Omega hatch from two eggs carried across the galaxy to save them from extinction. Gentle, curious, and utterly enormous, the young Plateosauruses grow quickly from newly hatched hatchlings into the biggest (and most lovable) secret the town of Glennview has ever kept.
