Synopsis

The Blind Worm Bizarre struggles for power consumed the mutated inhabitants of Earth, a planet who oceans had dried into salt beds and whose densely vegatated plains had become the impregnable entity the Wildland. The black king, John Tamerlane, black of body and of blood, was the first to claim Earth. But Sum, a powerful aggregate mind, controlled Earth through the Wildland, and sought to keep it as the base of its universe. Only a demon's price would pry the prize from Sum. And only the Blind Worm, a massive, misfit creation of a deranged mind, could satisfy Sum's demands. viciously they battled through time and the universe--pseudo-man and animal-machine. Their quest was Earth, but they were willing to ravage even that for power. Seed of the dreamers Brad Mantee, starcop on the galazy's rim, was on a routine mission when everything started to go wrong. His perfect record with star control, the vast network of galactic dictatorship, slipped suddenly into oblivion as he found himself in hot pursuit of the madman who had stolen his ship and with it, the secret that could cost him his career--at the very least. Unfortunately, Brad's best chance was through the madman's daughter, a girl from the one organization Star Control most detested. Their search led them ultimately to a primitive and uncharted planet where fiction became fact and dreams became flesh, but where also lurked a threat of universal slavery more total than man had ever known...
