In this stellar launch of a new series, bestseller Anderson (Dune spinoffs
with Brian Herbert; X-Files and Star Wars books) delivers action, engaging
characters and credible fantastic worlds in spades or ekti, the fuel
vital for spaceships in the year 2427. The Terran Hanseatic League,
in a heady rush of manifest destiny, turns Oncier, a huge gas planet,
into a sun so its four moons can be used for colonization. In the process,
the Terrans disturb the ancient but dwindling Ildirans, their uneasy
allies, whose leader, the Mage-Imperator, suspects that Terrans are
far too eager to take over the spiral arm. Still worse, by inadvertently
destroying Oncier's hitherto unknown colonists, the powerful hydrogues,
the conversion of Oncier sets off a catastrophic conflict that threatens
the existence of all Terrans and Ildirans. The Earth Defense Forces
of the Terran Hanseatic League, the Worldtrees and Green Priests of
Theroc, the gypsy Roamers who mine ekti all must unite with the Ildirans
to fight the alien menace. Book one sizzles with a fast-moving plot
woven tightly with vivid characterizations: the space cowboys Jess,
Ross and Tasia Tamblyn; the exotic Ildirans; the grotesque Mage-Imperator
and his handsome Prime Designate son, Jora'h; Beneto Theron, his clan
and the bewitching Nira Khali; the appealing and not-so-appealing humans,
Raymond/Peter and Chairman Basil Wenceslas; and many others, all conspiring
to make this fascinating future epic one not to be missed.
