The Planet Savers by Marion Zimmer Bradley audiobook. Genre: scifi On the isolated world of Darkover, a terrifying epidemic returns like clockwork: Trailmen's fever, a disease that flares every forty-eight years and can sweep through the human settlements with catastrophic speed. The Terran Trade City is desperate for a cure, and Dr. Randall Forth believes the key lies not only in medicine but in understanding the planet's elusive indigenous people, the tree-dwelling Trailmen of the Hellers. His best hope may be the brilliant but dangerously ill Dr. Jay Allison, a man whose mind has been split by hypnosis into two competing selves: the cold, scientific Jay and the daring, charismatic Jason, who has the survival skills and childhood ties needed to reach the Trailmen. Sent into the mountains with a mixed party of Terrans and Darkovans, including the politically powerful Regis Hastur and the formidable guide Kyla Raineach, Allison must navigate perilous terrain, armed hostility, and deep cultural mistrust. As the expedition pushes toward first contact and fragile negotiation, Allison's inner war becomes as urgent as the plague itself, raising the question of what it will cost to save an entire planet.
