Publisher's Synopsis
Pennitent has been taken over by the mysterious Quorum and their rule is complete. They have subjugated the population by fear and by the manipulation of rivalry between the four quadrants: Astrolabe, Zenith, Horizon and Cirrus. By holding an annual Battle of the Bands, where each quadrant selects a rock group to represent them, they can channel the emotions of the people. The winners enjoy fabulous rewards whilst the least successful meet an unpleasant end. Insatt is the lead vocalist with one of the most enduring acts, The Saters, but being a rock star is not all it is made out to be. Walking away from fame and fortune is not as easy it as it seems, especially when a groupie has a desire to kill you. The fate of the seven worlds is in the hands of a small band of travellers, who seem ill-equipped for the task. Rival forces with other intentions gather to reclaim the Moonstone and the Galena crystal. Possession of the stones being the first step to dominating the seven worlds!Even death cannot bring relief when evil is abroad!
