Rigel has two cultures on two planets in need of advancing to the level of the Home World Earth. One is like feudal Italy, the other resembles Aztec Mexico. It is up to the team from Earth to raise them to an acceptable level. But the Rigelians can learn faster than the team imagines. About the Chandler novel. From the inside flysheet: ?The Iralians were humanoid and technically free citizens of the Galactic Empire. But as slaves they were prized above all others,for they had the unique capacity to transmit knowledge by heredity. And so when the space mercenary Wanderer was hired by GLASS (Galactic League for the Abolition and Suppression of Slavery) to take a cargo of Iralians home it was not going to be a simple task.?.
