A group of telepaths navigate the challenges of their power in four linked stories from the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of the Star Wars Thrawn trilogy. Dale Ravenhall is part of a small network of telepaths spread throughout North America. Although they can communicate with each other across hundreds of miles, if they get within twenty miles of each other, the mental pressure is fatal. Their situation requires them to be a cautiously tight-knit community, but when one of them is murdered, things begin to unravel . . . The gripping world of Dale and his distant friends first appeared in “Red Thoughts at Morning” in 1981, and continued with “Dark Thoughts at Noon” and “Black Thoughts at Midnight. Now, in Distant Telepaths, Hugo Award–winning author Timothy Zahn brings the saga to a dramatic close with an all-new original story, “Bright Thoughts at Dawn.”
