About the Book
At his touch men died. Where his shadow rested, sometimes nothing
remained. Yet it was within his power to cure and heal. To most he was
known only as H. But there are malignancies other than physical, and
hatreds that cut like poisoned blades. Such was the hate felt by
Commander Malacar Miles for the DYNAB worlds. And there was that
specialist in exotic pathology, Dr Pels – himself clinically dead, but
also amazingly, menacingly alive. They made a threesome which should
never, never meet.
Across a universe that spans sterile new
worlds and an old but untranquil earth, plots and wild ambitions spark
and interweave as fast forces are shaped down to the grasp of one
controlling hand. To Die in Italbar is an epic of the imagination that
only the incomparable Roger Zelazny could write.
