Dumarest — — Clues from Angado, clues from the lady Govinda, clues of all types, all leading to the lost planet called Earth. But the clues all led first to a collector of ancient wisdom name Tama Chenault. For Dumarest, that was sufficient. — But Chenault turned out to be a wily and eccentric man in a planet of feuding nobility. He had assembled a group of strange oodballs about him, he defied the customs of the entrenched powers — and he took Dumarest under his banner. He would reveal the whereabouts of Earth as the reward for Dumarest’s allegiance.
Once again Dumarest was pitted against a doubting and hostile world. Once again he had the rare opportunity of winning for himself not only life and safety but the road to legendary Terra.
