For years, Rafi Delarua saw his family suffer under his father's unethical use of psionic power. Now the government has Rafi under close watch but, hating their crude attempts to analyse his brain, he escapes to the planet Punartam, where his abilities are the norm, not the exception. Punartam is also the centre for his favourite sport, wallrunning - and thanks to his best friend, he has found a way to train with the elite.

But Rafi soon realises he's playing quite a different game, for the galaxy is changing; unrest is spreading and the Zhinuvian cartels are plotting, making the stars a far more dangerous place to aim. There may yet be one solution - involving interstellar travel, galactic power and the love of a beautiful game.

This edition contains a bonus short story!

Industry Reviews

An engrossing picaresque quest, a love story, and a moving character study of two very different people coming to understand themselves . . . Lord is on a par with Ursula K Le Guin - Guardian on The Best of All Possible Worlds

Perfect for those looking for a new kind of story to read, one told without the usual trappings of the genre and envisioned in an innovative way - Speconspecfic.com on The Best of All Possible Worlds

The author is clearly a class apart, and doubly so in terms of her prose . . . Utterly astonishing - Tor.com on The Best of All Possible Worlds
