The Dark Wing is a 2001 military science fiction novel by Walter H. Hunt and part one of a 4-part series.
It features an ongoing war between humanity and birdlike mystical aliens known as the Zor.
The two species have been at war for over sixty years, punctuated by numerous truces, each broken by the Zor.
Lord Ivan Marais, with the assistance of Mr. Stone, collects information on the Zor during diplomatic missions and writes a book on them, stating the only way to win the war was to exterminate the Zor, as their religion dictates that their main deity, esLi, has granted the entire universe for the use of the Zor, and any other sentient species is an affront to their religion that must be removed.
