Sassinak

McCaffrey, Anne & Moon, Elizabeth ┬й 1990

Scanned September 2002 v1.00




Sassinak was twelve when the raiders came. Old enough to be used, young enough to be broken тАФ or
so they thought. But they reckoned without the girl's will, forged into a steely resolve to avenge herself on
the pirates who had killed her parents and friends.



When the chance comes to escape, Sassinak grabs it, thanks to the help of a captured Fleet crewman.
Returned to the Federation of Sentient Planets, she initiates her revenge by joining Fleet as a raw recruit,
surprising everyone by her rapid rise to senior rank. And then her vengeance begins in earnest.



Anne McCaffrey and Elizabeth Moon have woven a story worthy of Robert A. Heinlein in its tough-
mindedness, reminiscent of Larry Niven and David Brin ' in its description of human and alien races
coming together both as friends and enemies.
