Description

The Alastor Trilogy: A Collection of Classic Science Fiction Adventures In the vast expanse of the Alastor Cluster, thirty thousand live stars and three thousand inhabited planets are governed by the enigmatic Connatic. With his all-seeing eye, he knows everything about the inhabitants of this sprawling system. However, with five trillion people to consider, it's only a matter of time before something gives. The Trill, a peaceful race that once thrived in harmony, now finds themselves gambling their lives away on the planet-wide game hussade. On Marune, Pardero sets out to uncover the truth about his own identity and the mysterious forces that have erased his past. Meanwhile, on Wyst, a seemingly utopian world where millions live in harmony, the Connatic's investigation may prove to be a fatal mistake. This collection of three novels brings together Jack Vance's most iconic science fiction adventures, offering a glimpse into a complex and intriguing universe.
