"On a planet at the edge of a galaxy long torn by devastating wars, a man is assigned to monitoring duties--to detect any sign of aggressiveness that might trigger another conflict. In fulfilling this task, Lewis Orne, interplanetary troubleshooter, discovers in himself extrasensory powers of awesome potential. Because of his powers he is invited to join the company of "gods" and faces complex and perilous rites of passage in deep space."--Back cover.
