Synopsis
To the remote planet Spatterjay come three travellers with very different missions. Janer is directed there by the hornet Hive-mind; Erlin comes to find the sea captain who can teach her to live; and Keech - dead for seven hundred years - has unfinished business with a notorious criminal.
Spatterjay is a watery world where the human population inhabits the safety of the Dome and only the quasi-immortal hoopers are safe outside amidst a fearful range of voracious life-forms. Somewhere out there is Spatterjay Hoop himself, and monitor Keech cannot rest until he can bring this legendary renegade to justice for atrocious crimes committed centuries ago during the Prador Wars.
Keech does not realise that Hoop's body is running free on an island wilderness, while his living head is confined in a box on an Old Captain's ships. Nor does he know that the most brutal Prador of all is about to pay a visit, intent on wiping out all evidence of his wartime atrocities. Which means major hell is about to erupt in this chaotic waterscape.

Etat : As New. : En el remoto planeta Spatterjay, tres viajeros llegan con misiones muy diferentes. Janer es enviado allí por la mente colmena de los avispones; Erlin busca al capitán de mar que puede enseñarle a vivir; y Keech, muerto durante setecientos años, tiene asuntos pendientes con un criminal notorio. Spatterjay es un mundo acuático donde la población humana habita la seguridad de la Cúpula y solo los quasi-inmortales hoopers están seguros afuera en medio de una temible variedad de formas de vida voraces. En algún lugar está el propio Spatterjay Hoop, y el monitor Keech no puede descansar hasta que pueda llevar a este legendario renegado ante la justicia por los atroces crímenes cometidos siglos atrás durante las Guerras Prador. Keech no se da cuenta de que el cuerpo de Hoop está corriendo libre en un desierto de la isla, mientras que su cabeza viva está confinada en una caja en los barcos de un Viejo Capitán. Tampoco sabe que el Prador más brutal de todos está a punto de hacer una visita, con la intención de borrar toda evidencia de sus atrocidades en tiempos de guerra. Lo que significa que el infierno principal está a punto de estallar en este caótico paisaje acuático.

Paperback: 7" x 4½". Etat : Very Good: Light signs of wear. Cover Art: Steve Rawlings / Debut Art (illustrateur). 2003 Edition. © 2002: 1st in the 'Spatterjay' series of books. Unknown publication date. 3rd printing of 2003 paperback edition:- Synopsis: Welcome to Spatterjay, where sudden death is the normal way of life. On the planet Spatterjay arrive three travellers: Janer, bringing the eyes of the hornet Hive mind, on a mission not yet revealed to him; Erlin, searching for Ambel - the ancient sea captain who can teach her how to live; and Sable Keech, on a vendetta he cannot abandon, though he himself has been dead for seven hundred years. This remote world is mostly ocean, and all but a very few human visitors keep safe inside the island Dome. Outside it, only the native hoopers dare risk the voracious appetites of the planet's wildlife. But somewhere out there is Spatterjay Hoop - and monitor Keech will not rest until he brings this legendary renegade to justice for hideous crimes committed centuries ago during the Prador Wars. Pursuing rumour, Keech learns that Hoop has since become something monstrous: his body roaming free in an island wilderness, whilst his living head is confined in a box aboard one of the old captain's ships. Janer, the eternal tourist, is bewildered by this place, where the native inhabitants just will not die, but his bewilderment turns to anger when he finally learns the Hive mind's intentions. Meanwhile, Erlin thinks she has plenty of time to find the answers she seeks, but she could not be more wrong. For one of the most brutal of the alien Prador is about to pay the planet a surreptitious visit, intent on exterminating all remaining witnesses to his wartime atrocities. So, as the fortunes of these recent arrivals converge, major hell is about to erupt in a chaotic waterscape - where minor hell is already a remorseless fact of everyday life. And death:- Review(s): "Fast-moving narrative laced with action, biological inventiveness, grotesque horror, and glints of humour. Multiple climaxes of combat, death, justice, sacrifice, and vindication lead to some nicely sneaky or witty reversals" - David Langford, Amazon_co_uk:- (original cost £6.99).
