Publisher's Summary

Left homeless by the war that reduced Terra to a radioactive cinder, Hosteen Storm - Navaho commando and master of beasts - is drawn to the planet Arzor, to kill a man he has never met.

On that dangerous frontier world, aliens and human colonists share the land in an uneasy truce. But something is upsetting the balance, and Storm is caught in the middle. He had thought the war was over - but was it?

What the critics say

"Miss Norton endows this story of a homeless, revenge-driven man with her own inimitable touch. The result is a compelling and compassionate tale." ( The New York Times Book Review)

Enjoyed it very much

I’ve been reading Andre Norton since I was a young teen.
Now 71 years old it was so nice to be able to listen to an old favourite

Fantastic Story

A classic by Grand Master writer, Andre Norton. Still absorbing more than 60yrs after publication. The narrator is a bit disappointing but still enjoyable.

Boring, just boring

Getting this book I knew it would be nothing like the movies, or tv shows. However this is vary boring, the animals have no personality, and everyone's motivations are but well defined.
