It’s a rare Fohmatraan who leaves their homeworld - much to the Collective’s dismay, since Fohmatraans are the finest telepaths in the galaxy. So when Kazestrel ventures offworld, heading for the Central Worlds and a career with Collective’s First Contact team, he’s assured of an unconditionally wholehearted reception, a secure post, and a very comfortable life.
Unfortunately, in a galaxy as unpredictable and full of life as Haadri, things are not always that simple...
Haadri: Prime Contact tells the first part of Kazestrel’s voyage of discovery - and self-discovery - across Haadri. Official meetings (and the occasional, inevitable amorous ones), with memorable and colourful characters, missions to exotic and oftendangerous worlds, and inter-planetary intrigues are all part of a Mediator’s normal work - until Kaz arrives on Heart and becomes personally involved...
Advisory note
Due to the adult nature of the situations in this book, it is not for anyone under the age of 18. Haadri: Prime Contact contains depictions of adult situations including violence and scenes of a wide-ranging, alien sexual nature. Although many are implied only, a few are graphic, but none are gratuitous in context. If this is likely to offend, don't buy the book.
