I just read Channel's Destiny (I don't remember the authors) and enjoyed it a great deal. The book says that it's "another in the Sime/Gen series". I have never heard of this series before (it's apparently published by DAW). Does anybody know anything about this series? I'd like to find the other books.

Are the Sime/Gen stories about the world with two different types of
people: Simes, who have tentacles and need a particular type of energy
to live, and Gens who are normal people except they produce this
energy, so there is basically a war on with Simes hunting the Gens ...
Of course, I could have the names of the races wrong. I read two books
about them, but forget the author or titles. Whatever they were, I
enjoyed them.

The book Channel's Destiny was written by Jacqueline Lichtenberg and
Jean Lorrah (sp.?). The other books in the series include:
First Channel (also by both authors)
House of Zeor (by J. Lichtenberg only)
Unto Zeor Forever (by J. Lichtenberg)
There is also a fanzine called Ambrov Zeor that comes out of Monsey
NY (I think the address is in the front/back of a couple of the
books. Jackie Lichtenberg is also known for her Star Trek
connections, she was one of the founders of the Star Trek
Welcommittee, and on of the authors of Star Trek Lives!. Jean
Lorrah has put out a cople of books on her own:
Savage Empire
Dragon Lord of the Savage Empire
I found them to be enjoyable reading, although not the most earth
shattering stuff I've ever read.
