Blurb: “The sad middle-aged man, the temperamental young girl, and the self-centered young man have special mental powers that had been highly useful in the war against the Azuli. Now they were being sent back to Earth as worn-out casualties of that war. When their transport is destroyed in space they are stranded on the planet Bor, whose population and technology resemble that of nineteenth century Earth. Rinegar's telepathic re-ceiving, Corisande's telekinesis, and Berneson's teleporting are special talents even on Earth, but on Bor they would be regarded as witchcraft. The perfect solution is to join a carnival. The strange trio are soon moving from city to city, amazing audiences with their carefully controlled powers.

Then the Azuli spaceship lands and brings the interstellar war to the peaceful planet. Comfortable in their new lives, the renowned performers have to decide whether or not to become involved again in the deadly struggle from which they had been rejected as no longer useful. But what can three humans do against an army of alien invaders?

"The application of mind reading, poltergeist-directed missiles and disappearing acts makes for some unusually creative guerrilla warfare tactics." -The Kirkus Reviews”
