Throughout the book, key characters have telepathic conversations and psychic premonitions and recollections amounting to full hallucinations. These are at first associated with artifacts called "star gems," but later revealed to be a function of the human "genetic continuum" established by the original fostering of humanity by a survivor of the destroyed fifth planet. All of this is explained with only brief bursts of exposition in the context of a high-action plot involving threatened invasion by tentacular monstrosities from an alien dimension.
The whole book highlights a distinctively 1970s inflection of the neophilically-imagined future and could never be written today. It's really not an admirable piece of literature, but it is sometimes amusing, and certainly distinctive.
