Opis

One Old War, One New The Heliot, a genetically engineered human/amphibian species, have begun rapidly expanding their Empire, ruthlessly using a device, the Aquaformer, that turns a dry planet into an ocean of poisonous Heely water. World by world the Heliot plan to remake the Galactic Union in their own planet's image. Now they are coming for Earth. But even as Union forces, some led by Admiral Samuel Armstrong, struggle to protect their member planets, newly-elected Union President, Siobhan Archer, uses the Heely threat to drive anti-supernormal paranoia to a fever pitch. Jane Pace, the powerful Pacey Telekinetic, now works for the Union's Extra-Sensory Task Force (the ESTF) on Earth's largest space station, Terra 1. She and most of her fellow refugee freaks find themselves not only fighting to survive, but to keep the Union free...even if most of the humans within the Union would rather see it fall than accept their help. Fortunately for them, Jane, Felix, Atalanta, Wilby and many others, including some Terran 'natural' supers, aren't waiting for permission to act...
