Summary
They took a one-way trip into the unknown, but can they find
a way back? The Pliocene Epoch's exiled races are caught in a
violent struggle for ascendancy. The humans who escaped to the
Galactic Milieu are now beset on all sides, as they seek a
foothold in this turbulent land. Aiken Drum, now King, has many
enemies, but the Firvulag seem set to move first to initiate
their long-prophesied Nightfall War. And although recent
confrontations have weakened Aiken, any sign of frailty will
bring down his kingdom. The powerful Elizabeth Orme supports
King Aiken, and his enlightened despotism is preferable to Marc
Remillard's cruel ambition. But these conflicts will be
overshadowed if a time-gate is opened back to the 22nd century,
something Marc can never permit. All will be decided at the
Grand Tourney, where Tanu and humans will face the Firvulag in
the last great contest of the exiled world.
