About This Book

The narrative follows an Earthman mysteriously transported to Mars, where he discovers a thin, dying world inhabited by disparate races and fierce city-states. He is captured by tall green warriors, earns status through courage, masters the local language and customs, and forms alliances with a chieftain. In pursuit and rescue of a royal captive from a rival city, he becomes a celebrated leader and gladiatorial combatant, negotiates shifting loyalties, and experiences a passionate attachment to the captive. Episodes of escape, battlefield strategy, and political intrigue drive the story as the protagonist adapts to alien landscapes and technologies while confronting questions of honor, survival, and cross-cultural loyalty.
