![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() It had to be me that was not getting it, right, not the book? The thing that makes it so difficult is coming to grips with the depth of the prose and the completely alien cultures it describes. Largely this is because of how many times I have heard how good a book was. The first time I started it I gave up after only a few pages but the second time I picked it up I was determined to finish it. After Korga's treatment is reversed he starts an intimate relationship with Marq and in the space of the day begins to question everything he has known to be true. Marq Dyeth is an industrial diplomat (ID) from a respectable family who has travelled the stars. When his planet is destroyed by an alien race “Rat” Korga is the sole survivor. In the prologue we are introduced to a troubled young man who is forced by society to undergo Radical Anxiety Termination (RAT) treatment that renders him effectively a mindless automaton who is sold and used for physical labour.
