5.0 out of 5 stars
strong outer space society tale,
This review is from: PROPHET-SEED (Paperback)
Avalon was settled by miners but war cut off the planet from the rest of the empire. In the year 8729 AD the empire has returned to Avalon only to find the inhabitants have devolved into hunting and gathering tribes. The empire plans to leave as their prime belief is not to teach advanced technology to primitives.The empire's first imperial ranger hopes to retire and make his home on this beautiful paradise. From the planet Sparta he buys a slave warrior Beda-Loo and upon her arrival, he frees her in the hopes that she will want to make a life with him here. Beda-Loo quickly realizes that Jake is an honorable warrior and decides to stay with him as his mate. The tribes accept them as true Avalonians. However, their peaceful way of life is threatened by a rival tribe led by a renegade who cold bloodedly killed the leader. He intends to take control of all the tribes but Jake and Beda-Loo plan to stop him. They also intend to keep secret the truth about Avalon that if known will destroy this unique planet. The hero of this book is an honorable, moralistic warrior with a kind heart who sees what must be done and does it. His wife is his equal in every sense of the word and when she learns the secret of Avalon she too wants to protect it from outsiders who will want to exploit the natives. S. Roy L. Hawkins is a gifted storyteller whose innovative ideas inside a strong plot captivate readers who can only dream of traveling to Avalon. Harriet Klausner |
