Edj of the Empire: Revenant's Omen - Paperback

The riveting second installment in the Edj series

How can you stop an enemy that can see the future?

After the events of Herrig's World, Edj is hot on the trail of D'Orneo. His pursuit leads him to Villalba, a world of tropical island paradises where over a hundred thousand luxurious resorts cater to every whim or flight of fancy. Fortunes are won and lost on Villalba twenty-nine hours a day in the casinos that never close. Gambling on anything for anything from cards to shark fights, dice to gladiators; if it can be wagered on, it can be found on Villalba.

Edj arrives to find that the once powerful economy of Villalba has ground to a halt. A new drug, Peek, grants users the ability to glimpse the future. The casino industry is in tatters and the new governor is at wit's end. Suspecting that D'Orneo is somehow involved, Edj plunges into an investigation. Going undercover as a member of the galaxy's premier drug cartel, The Revenants, a group of beings who prolong their lives by harvesting body parts, Edj begins to unravel the truth.

What he uncovers has larger implications than anyone could imagine. With his cover blown, his guardian, Sam, neutralized, and his enemies able to see his every move before he makes them, can Edj find a way to stop Peek from becoming a weapon capable of bringing down the Empire?
