As Cluster opens, the alien envoy Pnotl of Sphere Knyfh seeks help from Sphere Sol in a shared galactic?level crisis: Galaxy Andromeda has discovered the secret of energy transfer and intends to use it to steal the basic energy of the Milky Way Galaxy. Knyfh offers the secret of aura transfer on the understanding that Sphere Sol will spread the technology to help create a galactic coalition to find and defeat agents of Andromeda. Sol's highest?Kirlian individual is Flint, a green?skinned native of Outworld, who has a Kirlian aura of two hundred, an eidetic memory (useful for memorizing the complex equations of Kirlian transfer that he will need to communicate to other spheres). He has extraordinary intelligence and is highly adaptable. His mission is complicated, however, by the fact that he is pursued everywhere by a very high Kirlian female Andromedan agent and, somehow, the Andromedans are able to detect and trace Kirlian transfers. Flint embarks upon several missions to bring transfer technology to neighboring spheres, inhabiting various alien forms. His efforts are successful despite attacks and sabotage by the Andromedan agent. Through the conflict, however, the mutual attraction of their two vastly superior auras begins to undermine their individual loyalty to their own Spheres. Flint and a group of other entities recover the information that will allow them to detect and trace transfers, and a member of the group is revealed as the Andromedan agent. One result is the catastrophic destruction of the local habitat. Flint and his nemesis are transferred into alien Mintakan bodies to survive. Choosing to leave things with parity between their two galaxies, Flint and the Andromedan mate and remain together until their auras fade (which happens rapidly, since their physical bodies have been destroyed).

In the future, human in the Sol Sphere develop the ability to transfer their essence, their Kirlian auras, into alien beings, allowing transfers to alien cultures. Flint is chosen, because of his strong aura, to go out to alien worlds to build a coalition against the Andromeda galaxy. Anthony's world building is first rate, especially the non-humanoid civilizations. 4 👽👽👽👽

Lizpixie I loved this author when I was around 12yrs old. I think I read all of his Xanth & Incarnations of Immortality in a year🙌 3y
RamsFan1963 @Lizpixie I first read A Spell For Chameleon when I was around 13 and fell in love with Xanth. I stopped around book 15 or so, not sure why. 3y

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.
Day 170

I am posting series books together instead of posting each book separately.
