CROSSROADS OF THE
FLAMMARION RIFT -
STAR WELL


Within Star Well can be found casinos and dining rooms, luxury suites and expensive shops, warehouses and (secret basements).  Wu and Fabricant's Guidebook says Star Well is a dull place to visit.  It wouldn't have said that if Wu and Fabricant had been shown the secret basements.

Strange travelers come to Star Well.  Anthony Villiers: personable, curious, temporarily without funds to cover his bill - and our hero.  Torve the Trog: bulge-eyed alien, illegal wanderer, vegetarian by principle.  Augustus Srb: fat and dubious priest of Mithra, and perhaps something more.

Strange sounds were heard regularly in the night.  Villiers spoke in riddles when questioned by Admiral Beagle.  Torve the Trog rode his speedy red tricycle on obscure missions.  And somehow an army gathered around them.

But not even Villiers knew that one of the men he'd attracted was an assassin, sent to kill him....
