'Killashandra'
She was one of the Crystal Singers, the elite, mysterious ones, who cut the crystals from the planet Ballybran - precious glittering crystals without which the universe could not function.
Sent to the planet of Optheria to repair the famous crystal organ, she was - at first - accorded all the honour and pomp due to her rank. Then her life became threatened and she found herself isolated at the very heart of the planet, knowing that she alone had the power to confront and destroy the evil that had permeated the world of Optheria.
Continuing the story begun in 'The Crystal Singer' and 'Killashandra', from the Crystal Singer series.
Killashandra was the most gifted Crystal Singer on Ballybran. With her partner, Lars Dahl, she held the record for cutting the terrible, fascinating and infinitely rare black crystals - crystals that could destroy the brain of a Singer if they were not properly controlled. Killashandra and Lars Dahl together were an invincible pair.
So when, on the distant planet of Opal, a new, beautiful, unfathomable manifestation was discovered, Lars and Killashandra were the team asked to explore the "Jewel Junk". All those who had previously encountered it had died. Only the Crystal Singers, with the immune system of Ballybran in their blood, were thought to stand a chance of survival. The "Jewel Junk" was brilliant and mysterious, and became even more so when fed with some of Ballybran's precious crystals. But it was to be twenty-five years before the planet Opal released one of its secrets - a secret that was to prove the salvation of Ballybran and the Crystal Singers.
From world bestselling author, Anne McCaffrey, creator of the 'Dragons Of Pern', comes the brilliant saga of the brave, beauriful, tragic people who are the Crystal Singers of Ballybran.
