DREAMSPY by JACQUELINE LICHTENBERG
|
SummaryContinuing the universe introduced in Those of My Blood ,
this volume finds two powerful political factions, the
Teleod and the Metaji, waging war over two competing
systems of interstellar travel, with the Metaji alleging
that the Teleod are destroying the substrata of space-time
that make such travel possible. A small group of outcasts
attempts to divert the course of war to avert disaster.
Kyllikki, a high-ranking telepath who deserts the Teleod
to join the Metaji Empire, joins with the luren (vampire)
Zuchmul and the Guide (astrogator) Idom, to rescue a
Dreamer, Elias, after their vessels are destroyed during
battle. Elias, who has been kidnapped from Earth, is
bonded--illegally--to Kyllikki's cousin, Zimor, leader of
the Teleod. The four then set off across the galaxy in a
stolen starship to depose Zimor.
