The Palace of Love

Plot

"'The Palace of Love extends over a considerable area and is by no means a single structure but rather a complex of gardens, pavilions, halls, domes, towers, promenades and scenic panoramas. The people of the Palace are all young and beautiful and know no other life; they are the happiest of mortals.' So speaks Viole Falushe. He is said to be fascinated with erotic variations and culminations. One of his favorite games is to rear a beautiful maiden with great care in an isolated cloister. She is trained to the knowledge that some day she will meet a miraculous creature who will love her and then kill her. And one day she is liberated upon a small island where Viole Falushe awaits... Viole Falushe was the third of the Demon Princes on the vengeance list of Kirth Gersen. Like the first two, he was elusive, cunning, vicious, and a monster beyond all human nature. And like the others, also, Kirth Gersen would find him no matter in what part of the galaxy or in what isolated distant planet his deadly Palace of Love was hidden."--Pg. [4] of cover.
