Review

"Ringo has become one of the writers whose work I jump first to when books arrive. . . ."

From the Author

I've noticed a lot of confusion over the nature of the device. The following is a spoiler, so if you've read the book and didn't grasp the significance of the artifact, here it is:

Hardcover, page 310 bottom and 311 top Paperback, page 390 top to 2/3 down.

The device is a Lindal, an artificial means of initiating Lintatai--catatonia--in an empathic Darhel. This is the psychological danger Tirdal faces throughout the book. This genetically engineered trait is called Lindai.

Obviously, the Aldenata needed some way of keeping a race as dangerous as the Darhel from rebelling, and this was the extra safety--a psionic device to prevent them from entering controlled areas. Naturally, it would be disastrous to allow humans to study this device and possibly gain control of Darhel.

Which left as the ending of the story: which one of the three was the hero?
