Publisher's Synopsis
After 33 years, S.P. Somtow is finally creating a fifth book in the Inquestor universe, the galaxy-spanning science fantasy series that Theodore Sturgeon called "the greatest magnitude of spectacle and color since Olaf Stapledon." The book is being released in a series of installments in pulp-sized magazine format. INQUESTOR TALES No. 1 contains the first 20,000 word episode of the novel, interesting notes on the Inquestral Highspeech, a bonus reprint of the original version of "The Rainbow King", a story incorporated into the tetralogy but never reprinted in its magazine form, a lettercolumn, and other notes and mini-articles from S.P. Somtow as well as from many of the field's most interesting commentarians.
