Když se Asahel Frost stal vyhnancem bez občanských práv a přijal jméno Helmut Icicle, usídlil se na Kedge-Lockaby, aby se pomalu upil k smrti. Netušil ale, že se bude muset vrátit do soukolí Koncernů a Společností, aby zachránil svou sestru – a zároveň i sebe, protože se ho někdo evidentně pokouší zabít...

Het jaar 2034: De Franse natuurkundige Theo Guderian doet een curieuze ontdekking: een poort door de tijd die leidt naar de Rhônevallei van het Plioceen - zes miljoen jaar geleden. Een reis waarvan geen weg terug is en daarom voor de wetenschap niet interessant. Lang na de dood van de ontdekker wordt een bruikbare toepassing voor de poort gevonden. Ieder die niet past of zich niet thuis voelt in het Galactisch Bestel kan zich vrijwillig laten verbannen naar deze mysterieuze omgeving in het verre verleden. In 2110 maakt een buitengewoon gemêleerd gezelschap van 'onaangepaste' maar talentvolle persoonlijkheden gebruik van deze mogelijkheid om de technologische perfectie van de 22ste eeuw te ontvluchten. Maar aan de andere kant van de poort heerst niet de idyllische eenvoud die zij er hoopten aan te treffen. Zij worden opgewacht door twee buitenaardse, oorlogszuchtige rassen die hen genadeloos misbruiken voor hun eeuwen oude strijd.

This is the third book in The Saga of the Exiles series. The domination of the Tanu has been broken. In the aftermath of cataclysm, Aiken Drum seizes the hour to grasp control of the Pilocene world. There are those, human and Tanu, who rally to him - and those who fear and hate him.

Exiled beyond the time-portal into the world of six million years ago, the misfits of the 22nd century are enmeshed in the age-old war of two alien races. In this strange world, each year brings the ritual combat between the Firvulag and the Tanu. This is the sequel to The Many-Coloured Land.

A promising future is envisioned, but a rebellion leads to destruction.

As the 21st century nears its end, humanity faces a pivotal moment in its evolution towards Unity within the Galactic Milieu. However, a faction of rebels, driven by a desire to preserve human individuality, conspires against this integration. Behind their efforts lurks Fury, a powerful and deranged metapsychic entity intent on seizing control of humanity. Jack the Bodiless, a mutant genius with extraordinary abilities, stands in opposition to Fury, determined to resist becoming a pawn in its dangerous game.

In the year 2051, Earth stood on the brink of acceptance as full member of the Galactic Milieu, a confederation of worlds spread across the galaxy. Leading humanity was the powerful Remillard family, but somebody--or something--known only as "Fury" wanted them out of the way.Only Rogi Remillard, the chosen tool of the most powerful alien being in the Milieu, and his nephew Marc, the greatest metapsychic yet born on Earth, knew about Fury. But even they were powerless to stop it when it began to kill off Remillards and other metapsychic operants--and all the suspects were Remillards themselves.Meanwhile, a Remillard son was born, a boy who could represent the future of all humanity. His incredible mind was more powerful even than his brother Marc's--but he was destined to be desroyed by his own DNA...unless Fury got to him first!From the Paperback edition.

In the epic conclusion to The Rampart Worlds trilogy, interstellar maverick Helly Frost sets out to prove that a proposed pact with the alien Haluk could destroy the Commonwealth of Humans and sets out for the Sagittarius Whorl, a hostile and remote region of the galaxy to uncover evidence to expose the Haluk plot against humankind.

The Frivulag are rising, while the children of the metaphysic rebels are to re-open the time gate - sole escape route back to the Galatic Milieu - and Marc Remillard, the adversary, takes up his destined role in the power play.
