Synopsis
In Blind Ambitions, the sequel to A. L. Sirois's brilliant far-future novel Blood Relations, Arrizida "Zida" Yokoi, a nineteen-year-old telepath aboard the starship Haltija, has arrived at the mysterious lost colony world, Lennon. Before she realizes it, however, Zida and her crewmates find themselves the victims of a plot hatched years earlier on Earth. They are swept up into violence, tragedy and madness. Now, with the main body of the expedition forced to return to Earth, Zida has elected to stay behind with a research team seeking what may be the key to human immortality. As she continues grappling with the mysteries of the planet Lennon, Zida runs afoul of bloodthirsty cultists who worship their monstrous deity by replacing their eyes with smooth, round stones. When members of the science team are kidnapped by a Lennish warlord only Zida can save them. She and her lover Wolf, a Flyer, find themselves fighting a war in the air and a traitor among the ranks of the offworlders--with the fate of Lennon as well as the Implementation of Mankind at stake.
