- When professional duelist Conn Labro escapes indentured servitude as the
star player of Horder's Emporium, he abandons the gaming world of Thrais and
sets out on an interstellar journey filled with murder, deceit, and
self-discovery. His only friend on Thrais, discovered dead and tortured, left
him enough money to buy himself out of his contract and a curious encrypted
"bearer deed" to a mysterious property on the distant edge of the galactic
Spray. With the seductive, secretive showgirl Jenore Mordene at his side and a
villainous pleasure cult dogging his every move, Labro sets out to learn the
truth behind his bearer deed and more about his own past than he had ever dared
bargain for.- For the first time ever in paperback, this thrilling, vividly imagined new
science fiction novel from rising star Matthew Hughes (The Commons,
Majestrum, The Spiral Labyrinth) provides atmospheric adventure in
the classic tradition while layering on complex, fascinating societies and
future cultures with the deft touch of a master storyteller.
