Mickie is now 15, but in his mind are the memories of the life of Markel, the greatest of the Pfafth and he has now regained all the powers of his species. He has met and fought the terrible Sillaron, the race that defeated the Pfafth and sent them into hiding out of Space and out of Time. Now Mickie must find his people and when he does, he learns of the role for which he has been bred in a million-year long program. And the crisis is far from over, for if the Galaxy in which the Pfafth are hiding is not returned to normal space and time, the entire Universe will become unstable and collapse. Mickie faces the ultimate test - his own survival or that of his people.
