Beschreibung:
In the midpoint novel of the "e;Demon Princes"e; series, Kirth Gersen sets his sights upon the mysterious Viole Falushe. Vance describes this murderous creature as a "e;sybarite."e; "e;Sadistic pervert"e; would probably be a more apropos phrase. After several false leads, Gersen backtracks the villain to his point of origin - Earth, of all places! Then the trail moves outward again, to the starworlds and a place back of beyond where there is actually a physical Palace of Love.
