In these scrolls, Leron the Dassuk, or Lord Harum, Wind from the North, to give him his formal titles, reveals more of his unlikely path to absolute power, and we hear from the Standardbearer for the first and only time.
Exactly why Leron was condemned to Winter is explained, and his bonding with Lekk the Nightmare, super-carnivore, described. Leron recounts the Betrayal of the Zeppers, and introduces us to the aggressively vegan Albanovans. And we meet the two women in his life: Khala, the blind pleasure slave whose espionage network is key to the success of the Five, and Lissa, his bedwarmer, who has no fear of dassuks.
Leron knows that the power of the Five will never be secure until he imposes his will on the Mantz, the industrialists, the weaponmasters, whose wealth and influence pose a permanent challenge. How he achieves this through diplomacy, intrigue and selective assassination is revealed, and how, along the way, he acquires a new weapon. Thunderstrokes are primitive explosive devices – Leron considers using them against the rhales, the large, aggressive and fiercely territorial cetaceans that make ocean travel between the planet’s widely separated islands impossible.
