Description: The always-enigmatic and masterful Jack Vance shows he hasn't lost a step as he tells the story of Jaro, a young child brutally beaten by a gang of ruffians. Jaro is saved by a pair of visiting academics - Hilyer and Altheah Fath - but doctors were forced to remove much of his memory to prevent psychological trauma. The Faths adopt the homeless, friendless Jaro and take him back to their homeworld, Gallingale. But as Jaro comes of age in his new life, he is constantly haunted by the mystery of his past, a mystery he is bent on solving.
