A backstabbing 'leader', an oversexed barbarian wench, an undersexed thief, a spoiled rotten princess, a genespliced anihuman and a human raised by aliens who rapes dead women and eats them.

Oh yeah, really good material to start off with. Freer uses the sex card way to much in this novel, to the point where it seems it really should be one of those porno western books instead of a serious novel.

And it wraps up in the snap of a finger. I have to admit, I had higher expectations, and they were dashed. No more Freer for me.
