Menx, the mysterious world where technology is taboo and reality is seldom what it seems. Menx is fast approaching the time when it must decide for or against membership in the Galactic Concord, and Rhane en Jacaroen, hereditary ruler of the planet Siol, has come here on a double mission--as a Concord agent and to recapture and preserve for Siol his brother Cezine's death moments. Yet to learn all he must, Rhane has to travel through the Jaws of Menx, the forbidden mountains, and on to the Fountains of Madness, where only the gods survive. At the Fountains, Cezine died, and there Rhane will relive his brother's last hours and find his own destiny. But first he must find a guide, tame a living legend, and run a terrifying gauntlet of madness and destruction. Failure will mean the end of Siol, but if Rhane succeeds, two other worlds may pay the price... How long could the natives of Menx survive if the Galactic Concord learned their oldest and darkest secret?
