© 1967: 3rd in the 'Childe Cycle' series of books. 12th printing of 1975 edition. The complete story based on the 1964 novella of the same name. Sometimes identified as "2nd in the 'Dorsai Trilogy'", but considered to be the 3rd in the 'Childe Cycle':- Synopsis: The black-clad mercenaries of the Friendly planets fought where their employer and their God dictated. On New Earth they pitted their fanaticism against the cold courage of the Dorsai. And the implacable hatred of one man, Tam Olyn. Olyn saw his brother-in-law shot down before his eyes. His quest for vengeance took him across half the civilized worlds, to Cassida and Frieland, to St Marie and back to New Earth. He met men of all the splinter groups into which Mankind had evolved and he used them all to bring about his revenge - until Padma the Exotic taught him how to use his special powers. And the frightening knowledge of the Final Encyclopaedia:- (original cost £2.99).
