(1969; Ace Science Fiction Special 65050; Printed in USA; 222 Pages; VERY RARE in this 1969 ACE edition with the classic Leo and Diane DILLON Psychedelic cover art; PBO: Paperback Original 1st Ed; Goodreads; Shrouded by its shell of drifting lunar fragments, the planet Mnemosyne is a refuge for creative artists and poets, a place isolated from the desperate, losing struggle of the humans against the Syccans. But then COMsac, the Federation's High Command, come to Mnemosyne, and suddenly the planet is more a military colony than a place for artists. For Mack Taverner, the dilemma is either go along with the brutal military visitation or join the hopeless resistance and become a 'traitor'. His choice has awesome and extraordinary consequences; ** An Edenic planet is being wasted by endless interstellar war. The hero leads a hopeless revolt against the military, dies, and is reborn as part of the planet's 'world-mind.' A far-fetched but seductive tale of transcendence.
