Description

In his spartan cell, brother Jeb Stuart Ho comes out of terminal meditation. Quietly, he straps on his sword and flexes the hands that deal death. The brotherhood's computer has spoken, and he must carry out its orders. His mission will take him out into the sick, post-cataclysmic world, to the pleasure-city of Litz, with its Sex-O-Mars, its Torture Parlours, its genetically-bred whores, where Billy and Reeve, the DNA Cowboys, have found their private hells. It is in Litz that he must find a woman with the artificially-arrested body-growth of a thirteen-year-old girl and the mind of a sadistic megalomaniac — and kill her before she can drag the human race to final destruction.
