"Captain Lorq Van Ray's passion for vengenece drove him to attempt what no mortal as ever dared - to sail through the splintered core of a disintegrating sun.
Into Van Ray's obsession were drawn the aimless-wandering souls who would plug into a ship that offered adventure and escape:
- Mouse - the young gypsy who created blindingly beautiful visions on the syrjnx, an instrument of sensory projection,
- Idas and Lynceos - the twins from the outer colonies, one black and one albino,
- Sebastian - the golden - haired man and his Tarot reading mate TYY, who traveled the stars with their six black-taloned beasts,
- Katin - the scholor who preferred the quite moons of the universe to all the peaceful suns and planents..."
Nova, Samuel R. Delany, 1968
