Publisher Description
Rogue trader Janus Darke is a desperate man. Once rich and famous, a string of bad luck has brought him to the brink of ruin. Dreaming of past glories, lost in despair, the last thing he wants is to accept a commission from two mysterious strangers – a voyage to the Eye of Terror, the dark heart of the galaxy. But Janus finds himself in more danger than he could have ever imagined, as he is pulled into the middle of a deadly power struggle between the elder and their ancient enemy, a daemon prince of Slaanesh.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A destitute, half-mad spaceship captain and a Farseer team up to battle dark forces in William King's whirlwind adventure. When Auric, an elf-like seer, visits Janus Darke in a drug-ridden dive, tells him that their futures are entwined and offers him a fortune to journey into the deadly Eye of Terror, Janus writes Auric off as insane. Still, Janus goes along with Auric's plan and soon finds himself contending with a powerful force that is determined to steal the one thing he has left to lose his soul. Although the political structure of King's (Dragonslayer) fanciful world never fully comes into focus, he paints a bleak but compelling portrait of life in the 41st century.
