Gangs of Antares (Balintol Cycle, #2)

Dray Prescot #45

by Kenneth Bulmer (Pseudonym), Kenneth Bulmer

Volume forty-five in the saga of Dray Prescot of Earth and of Kregen, and the second book of the Balintol Cycle. Lit by the ruby and emerald fires of Antares, the planet Kregen, four hundred light years away from Earth, is a world harsh yet beautiful, terrible yet alluring. There any man or woman may achieve what the heart desires if they plan and struggle and keep faith with their innate purpose. Kregen has its share of weaklings and the faint of heart; but their names are not writ large in the footnotes to the Sagas to be found under the Suns of Scorpio. Dray Prescot has adventured widely over Kregen both at the behest of the Star Lords and to further his own vision. Now he is in the subcontinent of Balintol, where strangeness unlike any that he has previously encountered awaits him.

Reviews

[Roger Ivie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Fairly disorganized, but not as bad as all that wandering about aimlessly with Pompino the Iarvin.

I can see that some fairly interesting things were set up for the following volumes which, sadly, I'll probably never get a chance to read...
