Product Description
Product Description
Tsia had dreamed all her life of becoming a guide, attuned to her world through a telepathic gate to another lifeform. At last, she took the guide virus that would mutate her body to create the gate she so desperately craved. But the lifeform her body took was the one lifeform forbidden--the felines, who had scouted the planet for the First Droppers and, in exchange, been promised their freedom forever from human domination. By laws of the Guide Guild and the First-Landing Pact, she could never call to the cats, never speak with them, never approach them. But then capture and imprisonment, torture and slavery took the place of an empty future. Suddenly Tsia's only hope lay with her gate--and once she had touched the cats, there would be no turning back...
Ingram
Tsia's activities as a guide are doomed to failure when her empathetic bonding abilities align her with the felines, who will not answer the call of humans, but a kidnapping, a desperate escape, and a desert encounter change everything.

Cat Scratch Fever,
By "jarrardi" (ID, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cat Scratch Fever (Mass Market Paperback)
A vivid account of one woman's struggles with her telepathic link to an interdicted species, this story is not for the light reader. Seemingly effortlessly, Tara K. Harper plunges you into Tsia's harsh, chaotic world so that you feel every lash of the n-rod, every drop of sweat, every heart-pounding moment that could mean life or death.

Caterrific,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cat Scratch Fever (Mass Market Paperback)
Cat Scratch Fever was the first of Tara Harpers books I read and it sold me on her as an author. In Cat Scratch fever we learn about the psycic links between the colonists and the animals and the promise to the cats. Tsia wants one of the animal links unfortunately hers is to the cats. She avoids using her link and does not want to lose it because of the other benefits to the link. Then Tsia gets into trouble and her link to the cats is helpful and the cats seem to welcome her into their world.

Not so good,
By J.Walker (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cat Scratch Fever (Mass Market Paperback)
I actually went looking here, for this book, so that I could warn people off. What a tremendous let-down, to come out of such an interesting premise! The writing, oh, the writing! I have been afraid, since reading this book, to pick up any book with a similar title. If you like action and suspense, and plot twists, fine. Want quality prose? Look elsewhere.
