Science
fiction novel.
Series: World of Tiers
#3.
DEDICATION: --
COVER TEXT:
It was a world
of tiers and layers –the Amerind level, the Garden of Eden
level, the Talanac, the Atlantean– a universe of green skies
and fabled beasts. And it was all the playground of the Lord Jadawin,
with
transgravitational gates to the other levels and other worlds.
But now those gates were being sabotaged to permit the entry of an
invading force of "Bellers" –human bodies housing the
transferred minds of rebel Lords. They sought two things: total
domination of every Lord's private cosmos, and the life of Kickaha the
Trickster, who knew too much...
(Ace
