FRONT FLAP
"Acorna the 'unicorn girl'...has made peace with her past, her Linyaari heritage, and with the powerful 'differences' that set her apart from the loving humans who raised her. But only in the deep reaches of limitless space can she truly feel at home.
"Now, aboard the interplanetary salvage vessel Condor, Acoma is free once more, traveling through space in the company of her good friend, ship's commander Captain Jonas Becker, his gargantuan feline "first mate" Roadkill, and Aari, a proud Linyaari survivor of torture at the hands of the savage, bug-like Khleevi. But the journey is interrupted when a transmitted distress call - faint but undeniable - draws Acorna and her companions down to the surface of a nearby planet."
Anne McCaffrey (1926 - 2011), well-known for Dragonriders of Pern, is legend: first woman to receive the Hugo and Nebula Awards for science fiction, first woman science fiction writer to make the New York Times Best Seller list, and a member of the Science Fiction Hall of Fame.
