Startide Rising In Extra Large Print Summary
|
A Terran exploration vessel has crashed in a previously uncharted water world. They are being pursued by an odd assortment of alien spacers all intent on capturing or killing the crew. The crew consists of humans and genetically modified dolphins and chimps. In the background is the galactic history of “patron” species “uplifting” other sentients who then have to serve the patrons for thousands of years. Humans are an exception and reached space-faring status without a patron. Another background story is the hostility of the planet itself to any other species.
