AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Cambridge linguist Edvard Tøssentern, presumed dead, reappears after a balloon crash. When he staggers in from a remote swamp, gravely ill and swollen beyond recognition, his colleagues at the research station are overjoyed. But Edvard’s discovery about a rare giant bird throws them all into the path of an international crime ring. [Publisher's blurb]

Notes

  • Epigraph:

    My son.

    God created Man, I say. For Why would Man, who is rational, create the God who has power over him, demanding obeisance as I do?

    O Lord.

    Man is more deceiving than rational, I say. Man created God not to have power over him, but to have power over others.

    Leonardo de Boccardo
