Soul Rider
Jack L. Chalker · 5 novels · 1984–1986
Jack L. Chalker's Soul Rider novels are set on Anchor, a colony world cut off from Earth, where an alien-derived force called Flux lets trained 'Wizards' reshape reality and even transform bodies at will. Chalker uses the premise for his recurring fascination with identity and transformation, following characters through drastic changes across the sequence. The five novels form one continuous story published across the mid-1980s.
