This is another story with a Brainship. Carialle is the brain and Keff is the brawn. They are hoping to achieve first alien contact because Cencom may not renew their contract because Carialle had an unfortunate experience which left her vulnerable to shutdown. On the chilly planet Ozran they discover a population of humanoids ruled by arrogant ""wizards"" who have very impressive, seemingly magic, powers. Keff becomes a captive of the wizards, but is aided by a young, rebellious wizard. Meanwhile, Carialle has discovered the source of the wizards' power, a projector set up by an alien race. Use of the projector is dooming the planet to eventual extinction and the signs are already present. Carialle also discovers that frog like creatures living in the swamp are really the previous masters of the plant. Carialle engineers an end to fighting among the wizards and takes action that will save the planet. This is an Extra Large Print publication specifically formatted by the Virginia M.
