The Dream Lords

Mankind and its empire spanning the Nine Worlds are ruled by a powerful triumvirate of long-lived dreamers: the Dream Lords!The Dream Lords project a vision of utopia to obfuscate the alien hostility of Zurjah, the world long claimed to be the true seat of humanity. A vision that grows hazy as the power of the Dream Lords wanes.Destroyed by ancient wars, Earth has become a backwater prison colony, and its native inhabitants are called Barbarian and enslaved to perpetuate a myth that Mankind came from the stars.Galad Sarian, son and heir of one of the Dream Lords, discovers not only the truth behind the crumbling Zurjahn empire and faltering of the powers that maintain humanity's grasp on alien worlds but also a plot by Daras Vorta, the Warden of Earth, to overthrow the Dream Lords with the aid of demonic forces. This edition collects A Plague of Nightmares (1975), Lord of Nightmares (1975), and Bane of Nightmares (1976) in a single volume, celebrating the 50th Anniversary of Adrian Cole's Dream Lords.
