MAN OF THE SWORD. Thane, the restless outworld warrior, was a man of blood and steel, a man of strange powers strangely acquired. His body was god-like: bronzed, lithe and powerful; his pale eyes warned that he could explode into limitless fury at any moment. Thane was a warrior, but he was also a seeker, for only he could find the secret of the Time Treasure. No one else in the universe could cross the Abyss of the Ages and go where no man had ever been before, where none should ever go again.
