It was not enough that he had landed on a feudal planet. Alan Green had to serve the Duke of Tropat as kitchen slave - and his wife, the beautiful but unwashed Duchess Zuni, as official lover, under constant threat of death. He had to escape and return to earth.
"Alan Green arranges passage on a "wind roller," a sailing vessel of the plains, by dazzling the captain with a financial scheme that offers rich profits to overcome his reluctance to help a fugitive. Setting "sale" with the captain, Green thinks he's escaped from his dominating wife--but he's wrong. Throw in pirates, floating islands, and a black cat-goddess with a taste for beer, picked up after shipwreck on one of the wandering Islands of the Xurdimur, and you have the recipe for science-fantasy adventure as irresistible as Riverworld itself."
