        TranRifts Inc. controls all interstellar travel, and its businesses stretch far and wide. On the planet called Tanegawa's World, the company is in charge, but not everyone who lives there is a company man, or woman. Hob arrived ten years ago, an orphan left behind by a rift ship. Taken in by Nick Ravani, she grows up as part of his gang of mercenaries known as the Ghost Wolves. When Hob and the crew discover a dead man in the desert, they are angered to find it is Nick's brother, Phil. Even worse, they learn that his daughter, Mags, has been taken by the company elite and their mysterious Weathermen, who hunt down "witches," people who exhibit strange powers. Hob possesses some of those abilities but has kept them hidden. Yet in the wake of continued company-sponsored hunts, she must learn to take control of her power and help her crew and the towns under control of the company. VERDICT Obvious parallels to Frank Herbert's Dune will draw readers into this action-packed tale of tyranny and rebellion, but Wells's character developments take the plot in new directions, leaving the possibility of a sequel.--KC
