DESCRIPTION - This extraordinary new book by the author of THE JOURNEY OF THE FLAME tells the story of Rico, reputed son of an exiled Austrian archduke, who became a bandit chief at sixteen and at twenty made himself absolute dictator of a Spanish-American country. In his wake there passes before us a train of strange and deathless characters: the Black Ghost, that bandit who lives by selling human ears; the Woman of Atlan, devoid of morals and coldly cruel, ruling tyrannically her unconquered Indian tribe; Ismael, hag0ridden and ghost-haunted, driven by unseen powers to serve Rico, and fore-doomed to die for his master; La Gloria, famous beauty and Rico's first mistress - these and many more form the pageantry of a tale that unfolds against a background of tropical jungle guarded by the Silent Ones, and ends among the palace intrigues of Rico's capital city. inventory #14663 A Few Internal Water Stains, Otherwise Very Good in Dustjacket.
