About the Book

The Yharria, the grand bazaar of Frenati City. Unique on the rim world Alpha-Seni, the Yharria is a place where anything can be obtained for a price.

And not always of the monetary kind. Terran expatriate Simon Weller enters the Yharria performing what he thinks is a simple, profitable surveillance job. Following the wayward husband of a rich, suspicious, highborn Sennite fem, he soon becomes enmeshed in a plot fueled by ancient ritualistic magic and rogue offworld technology. With the appearance of the mystical Magus Star in the skies above Alpha-Seni, myths have become real.

Weller, with the help of an unlikely group of comrades, must stop an arisen creature of legend from killing all those who stand in its way.
