Book description
Dumarest had learned in the hard school of experience and he came
equipped with certain attributes. He had very fast reflexes, he carried
a knife and knew how to use it, he wore travellers garb which, because
of the metal mesh buried within the thermal plastic, gave him protection
against the lash of a claw, the rip of thorns, the cut and thrust of
edged weapons. Most important of all, he had an overriding determination
to survive no matter what the cost On Gath this wasn't easy . . . (First
published 1997) Edwin Charles Tubb was born in London in 1919, and was
a prolific author of SF, fantasy and western novels, under his own name

Galaxy Science Fiction, and was a founding member of the British Science
Fiction Association. He died in 2010.
