FLIGHT FROM TARKIHL
by Clark Darlton
 PROLOG


In the Greater Imperium of the Arkonides it is the year 10496 A (for
Arkon)—a time corresponding to the Earthly year of 9003 B.C. Thus it is a
time in which the inhabitants of Earth are yet submerged in primitive
barbarism, knowing neither of the stars nor of the great heritage of
vanished Lemuria.

By contrast—and despite the great war against the Maahks—Arkon is in
its fullest prime. The present Imperator of this vast domain is Orbanashol
111, a man of brutality and cunning who is rumoured to have instigated the
death of his brother, Gonozal VII, in order to take over the rulership for
himself.

Even though Orbanashol III has firmly established his dominion, there is
one man whom the Emperor of Arkon must fear: Atlan, the rightful heir to
the throne. After Gonozal’s death, he had disappeared without a trace,
along with the former physician to Gonozal VII.

But perhaps the trail had not been sufficiently obscured, because
Orbanashol’s brutal agents, the Kralasenes, have suddenly appeared on
the remote planet of Gortavor—where Atlan has grown to manhood under
the watchful eye of Fratulon and in the protection of Tarkihl without
knowing anything of his true origin. It is here that they have arrested the
old physician without any warning.

Atlan must think of how to set Fratulon free and make his FLIGHT FROM
TARKIHL…
 THEY LIVED 10,000 YEARS AGO

ATLAN—The long-sought Crystal Prince must free his foster father from
prison but only then does the long flight to freedom begin.

FRATULON—As personal physician to the former Emperor, this one-time
gladiator is a man of mystery — and proves it now more than ever!

FARNATHIA—Atlan’s childhood playmate and love, but also the daughter
of the Tatto—which makes her a second target for the Blindman!

ARMANCK DECLANTER—The Tatto, or Regent of the planet of Gortavor.

SOFGART THE BLIND—Otherwise known as the Blindman, this human
monster is feared across the galaxy as the leader of the bloody and
unscrupulous, Kralasenes. He is known to have absolute authority from
Orbanashol III himself, and his assignment is to bring Atlan’s head back to
Arkon!
