From the back: Rahne is many things: A soft, warm planet, the force of life on that planet, the inhabitants of its luxuriant, sentient paradise. - The most powerful man in his universe, Fletcher was Lord of them all, Lord of the gomen, the lankomen, and the slimy gudra. Soon he would tame the horn snake, and soon, too, he would take a beautiful bride, one to share with him through all eternity his domination of Rahne and its obsidian and marble Secret City. Together they would realize the destiny decreed by the controlling consciousness of the Kanadoth, a telepathic race living in underground sanctuaries. Together they would sleep a long, long sleep as their lush, loving world passed into chrysalis. But their happiness is cut short by a Raider mind probe. From across the stas the Raiders come, determined to plunder the Secret City. Only one man stands between them, one man and the magical power of Rahne.
