I was just poking through the sf section of a typical paperback book store
the other day (B.Dalton?) and came across a Jack L. Chalker book I had never
heard of or seen mentioned before.  Maybe I'm just out of touch, the book has
a 1979 copyright.  It is titled _A_War_of_Shadows_.

Though identifiably Chalker style, it is quite a bit different from most
of his other works.  For those who like the plot within plot ideas of DUNE
fame, this story has it.  It IS "science" fiction, not pure fantasy, but it
doesn't require more than freshman general science to understand.  I enjoyed
it a great deal and would recommend it to anyone who reads general fiction
and likes quick paced good vs evil stories.

Has anyone out there seen this book and/or a review of it before, or did I
happen across some old unsold has_been book?
