The Chash: Very Good
In the afternoon I finished The Chash, part 1 of 4 of Tschai by Jack Vance. It was a very good reread.
The Wannek
After crashing on Tschai, Adam Reith's scout ship is impossibly damaged. Reith must find another vessel to return to Earth. Having rescued the beautiful Ylin-Ylan, Reith is assured of assistance from her father if he delivers her back to Cath; but as events unfold, he is forced to make a dangerous choice. Inevitably he must risk everything against the enigmatic Wannek - and their devious human servants, the Wannekmen.
In the afternoon I started in The Wannek, part 2 of 4 of Tschai by Jack Vance. The ebook I had downloaded has cover art by David Russell.
