Synopsis

An Empire Divided Richard Blade, special agent for a top-secret intelligence unit, is a human guinea pig, paving the way for mankind's space travel. On this trip, his incredible ride to Dimension X is in the new shock-absorbing, stress-reducing KALI capsule. Feeling surprisingly alert and refreshed, Blade lands squarely in an old Phoenician merchant ship about to be attacked by pirates. Blade returns to Gohar with the victorious crew, passing as a historian sent from the future to study the past. Every Gohar faction fights to make a good impression upon both Blade and history. When Blade learns of the rebellious colony of Mythar, struggling for independence from Gohar, his sympathies are divided...until he confronts Gohar's scheming and ruthless prime minister. Banished to an exotic island, Blade takes up the banner of a free Mythar, as underground leader of the rebel movement.... Before Blade's mission is over, he must run the gauntlet of Gohar's power-hungry prime minister, deadly assassins, and blood-crazed reptilians--leaving in his wake, death, destruction, and more than a few satisfied women.
