Synopsis

Young Jaro Fath—his violent past shrouded in amnesia—is raised by adoptive parents to follow in their scholarly footsteps. Instead, driven by desire to learn his origins, Jaro becomes a spaceman and sets off on a voyage of self-discovery.

His quest brings him to the decadent world Fader, whose proud but indolent upper class live in fear of bio-engineered slaves who cater to their every whim. On Fader, Jaro will confront the dire secret of his origin.

- Matthew Hughes
