Speaking Dreams by Severna Park

Speaking Dreams

Severna Park

In a retrograde future, where the known galaxy is divided between slavers, a deteriorating empire, and legendary aliens, a young woman with the gift of prescience – Costa – is taken from her home-world and sold into service. Unknown to her captors, or to the woman who reluctantly buys her – Mira LoDire, a diplomat – Costa possesses information that will forever change the balance of galactic power.

As the unavoidable confrontation between the three unevenly matched factions unfolds, so, too, does the love of the women for each other. The two of them are thrown into the midst of foretold events, their destinies woven together by a common enemy, their ultimate freedom dependent on trust and fate.

From Library Journal

A diplomat and a prescient slave join forces to combat intergalactic slavers and their alien allies. Park’s first novel demonstrates a good mixture of action/adventure and moral issues, as the protagonists struggle with questions of freedom and responsibility on internal and external battlefields. The lesbian orientation of the central characters forms an integral, though not overwhelming, part of a well-paced space opera. Larger libraries should consider this title.
