QUARTET.
The cruisers called.
She answered.
Cruiser Dreams, Book II in the three-book
Kerrion Empire saga
Cruiser Dreams . . . She is heir to an empire
beyond all imagining, where interstellar cruisers have become increasingly
sentient and man's role among the stars is transformed.
In this epic of political treachery,
interstellar security, human passion, and artificial intelligence, Morris
continues the saga of the fiery girl Shebat, stolen away from a decaying and
primitive Earth to be the adoptive heir to the Kerrion Empire. Molded to serve
the designs of the Kerrion state, Shebat instead becomes the harbinger of
change sweeping the civilized stars.
Against the chaotic background of simultaneous
social and technological revolutions, Shebat finds that the man she loves is
her implacable enemy, that the man she reluctantly married is perhaps her
single ally, and that her space-faring cruiser may be her only true friend.

Booklist
Janet Morris is an international best-selling
author who lives with her husband on Cape Cod.
Everything you've seen or read till now took you
only to the brink . . .
Neither pure fantasy, nor straight science
fiction, nor earthbound dynastic saga, Dream Dancer is a stunning amalgam of
all three. It is a family saga with the epic appeal of Dune and the action and
excitement of Star Wars. It is a saga of love, power and treachery that will
appeal to men and women equally; full of action, compulsively readable and
quite unlike anything being published in the realms of fantasy today.
Praise for the Kerrion Empire series:

great invention..." - Peter Straub, author of Shadowland and Ghost Story
"Not since Dune have we witnessed a power

Best
selling author Janet Morris began writing in 1976 and has since published more
than 30 novels, many co-authored with her husband Chris Morris or others. She
has contributed short fiction to the shared universe fantasy series Thieves
World, in which she created the Sacred Band of Stepsons, a mythical unit of
ancient fighters modeled on the Sacred Band of Thebes. She created,
orchestrated, and edited the Bangsian fantasy series Heroes in Hell, writing
stories for the series as well as co-writing the related novel, The Little
Helliad, with Chris Morris. She wrote the bestselling Silistra Quartet in the
1970s, including High Couch of Silistra, The Golden Sword, Wind from the Abyss,
and The Carnelian Throne. This quartet had more than four million copies in
Bantam print alone, and was translated into German, French, Italian, Russian
and other languages. In the 1980s, Baen Books released a second edition of this
landmark series. The third edition is the Author's Cut edition, newly revised
by the author for Perseid Press. Most of her fiction work has been in the
fantasy and science fiction genres, although she has also written historical
and other novels. Morris has written, contributed to, or edited several
book-length works of non-fiction, as well as papers and articles on nonlethal
weapons, developmental military technology and other defense and national
security topics.
Janet says: 'People often ask what book to read first. I
recommend "I, the Sun" if you like ancient history; "The Sacred
Band," a novel, if you like heroic fantasy; "Lawyers in Hell" if
you like historical fantasy set in hell; "Outpassage" if you like
hard science fiction; "High Couch of Silistra" if you like far-future
dystopian or philosophical novels. I am most enthusiastic about the definitive
Perseid Press Author's Cut editions, which I revised and expanded.'
