About the book
Space Commander Stagg and a group of astronauts explored the galaxies for 800 years. Upon their return they find the planet drastically changed--a scorched and barren landscape ruled by bizarre cults. Stagg is made the centerpiece of an incredible public ritual, one that will repeatedly take him to the heights of ecstasy and the depths of hell.
