Publisher Notes
In the second volume in a trilogy that began with On Blue's Waters, Horn leaves his home on the planet Blue to search for the great hero Patera Silk, but now Horn's own identity has become ambiguous as he begins to recall a number of prior lives and events that seem to have no link to his own.
