The Soul Eater
by Mike ResnickFrom the Hugo and Nebula Winning Author. Some call it the Dreamwish Beast. Others call it the Starduster. Some don&’t believe it exists at all. Others worship it. A handful will pay any price to kill it and display its remains. But it remains for one man, Nicobar Lane, the most accomplished hunter of the galactic era, to find out what it really is, to match wits and will power and skills against something that is both too alien and too familiar. Now that he knows the Dreamwish Beast exists, Lane becomes obsessed with killing it, much as Ahab was obsessed with killing the white whale…but the whale was an unthinking beast, while this one can establish contact with Lane long enough to ask what it has done to make Lane want to kill it. Join this Ahab as he reluctantly pursues the secrets buried inside him. Join this interstellar Moby Dick as he tempts and tortures his pursuer.

by Mike ResnickThe pursuit of a legendary beast pushes a hunter to his breaking point in this classic science fiction adventure by a five-time Hugo Award–winning author. &“I applaud The Soul Eater . . . a rarity in science fiction . . . any sensitive reader should be profoundly moved.&” —Wilson Tucker You name it, he&’ll kill it. Professional game hunter Nicobar Lane will travel anywhere in the galaxy to kill almost any creature for the right price. But when the richest woman in the Deluros system requests the Dreamwish Beast, he refuses. It&’s not her—he just doesn&’t believe in the animal, whether you call it a Dreamwish Beast, a Starduster, Straigor, or Deathdealer. It&’s simply a fable meant to scare children, and not worth his time . . . Then, an inexplicable sighting on a routine hunt changes everything. The more Lane investigates what he thinks he saw, the more his obsession grows. Suddenly the hunt for the Dreamwish Beast is on. But Lane is left wondering if he is closer to reaching greatness—or his own death . . .The perfect choice for readers of Alan Dean Foster, Timothy Zahn, and Joe Haldeman.
