About the Book
Cover: Ned Dameron. Underwood-Miller, 1984.
Man With No Past
From his fabulous palace on Numenes, the Connatic ruled the sprawling Alastor Clustor... and kept track of the doings of each of his trillion or more subjects. But there was one man he knew nothing about – for the past life of the wanderer called Pardero was a complete mystery.
Pardero set himself two goals. To find out who he was... and to find his enemy, the person who had stolen his memory. Psychologists deduced that his home world must be the mysterious Marune... a planet lit by four shifting suns Pardero made his way there – and was hailed as the Kaiark Efraim, ruler of the shadowed realm.
Uncovering his lost identity had been comparatively simple. Finding his sworn enemy would be more difficult... there were so many people to choose from!
