Marune: Alastor 933-Jack Vance novel, book review
Marune: Alastor 933-Jack Vance novel AKA: Alastor Book 2 Marune: Alastor 933 is a 188 page novel that was first published in 1975 and is the second of the three novels that comprise the excellent Alastor series. I recommend reading the first in the series Trullion: Alastor 2262 before moving on to Marune: Alastor 933. The first book is not as outstanding as Marune but is well worth reading and has some background information about the Alastor Cluster government, laws, the Connatic, etc. that can add to the understanding of the second book. Each novel takes place on a different planet within the Alastor Cluster with unrelated characters and plots. Marune: Alastor 933 begins with our main character, Glinnes Hulden, arriving at a spaceport on a strange planet where he has no memory and is unknown. He earns enough money to fly to another planet where medical and psychological testing cannot bring back his memory but do determine which planet he was from originally. ...
