Earth... After Wormwood.

The Human Heroes Aspen Dirk, Jamis Talby, Hollis Green, the mad poet Antellim... those who travel the patchwork, who meet the Hoproi warmasters, the gleaming Matta whose houses Kill, the Darzie mind-riders,the living spaceships, the Amazi, whose greatest longing is to couple with Human women...
All part of what the world has become... after Wormwood.
