Description

Nimrod Woodbine had just begun his first journeyman Walkabout when his traveling companion, Musette, was kidnapped. She is a beautiful, human size mouse. They love each other but it can only be spiritual. He is a young Wanderer of the Wanderer people on the huge unexplored planet Chrysalis.
A ragged seraphim flies off with Musette from their campfire and Nimrod sets out to rescue her. He has to cross the Void which is many miles across and of unknown depth. He must cross by a Lightbridge that materializes only when the twin suns reach opposite horizons before nightfall. Only then can one cross by racing over the shimmering blocks which disappear as the suns leave the landscape in darkness. He makes it across at risk of his life, for the love of his life.
Nim’s traveling companion, Musette, wears snug, gray leather pants, a dark jerkin, and a cocked hat sporting a little firefeather. She is a mouse, and shorter than him by a head. Nimble and trim, with fine gray down on her face, and soft brown eyes set above an upturned nose and full pouty lips, she is as pretty as any girl in his eyes. He falls into despair as he thinks of losing her, racing toward a destiny that could be worse than death.
He learns that Nymphae, the dissolute and insatiable queen of the isle of Eros, in the Sea of Sorrow, keeps her incredible beauty by consuming the essence of men. She stores their living husks in standing coffins in the dungeon of her castle just for sport and to horrify her population. It is taking more and more young men to maintain, and she sets her minions to search the planet for someone whose essence is pure enough to launch her into the immortality she craves. Her searches find only one with the purity she requires—Nimrod. He must be a virgin. She knows that she will get him when he comes to rescue Musette. She also knows that no man can resist her.
His mission takes him across the terrifying Void into Eastover, a strange land few Wanderers have ever seen. He meets Finetune, a poet-lawyer, wannabe warrior, who joins him in his quest. They face danger and have many wild and weird adventures in their quest.
Musette escapes from her prison cell and barely escapes being eaten by more than one creature in the bowels and dungeons of the castle. Nymphae learns that Nimrod knows of her and panics, then sends her current lover, a huge angel who seems to be inexhaustible, to capture Nimrod. The angel, who has become the slave of Nymphae, is captured and arrested for indecent exposure and tried in a court of law, defended by Finetune. There has never been such a hilarious trial. (This book is written by a courtroom lawyer) Later Finetune learns that Nimrod’s virginity must be resolved and dispatched. That is accomplished at Hakim’s Houris.
This is a love story. An adventure. A totally different kind of fantasy. It is a comedy with only a few dark corners. It is about a race of lost races of beings driven from their homeland by an evil scourge. It has points of high hilarity, sex, betrayal, hope and despair, violence, healing, vengeance, bizarre creatures, tender love and triumph of good over evil. Read the reviews attesting to these points.
