The plot tells of how Reed, an angry young man, leads a revolts against the
Venusian ruling classes, not out of any principles, but merely for revenge.
Beginning as a small time con-artist, Reed's immortal genes allow him to rise
up the social ladder without a struggle, despite no one knowning his parentage.
He is a Slannish character, progressing through life as much on his innate,
superhuman abilities as he does based on his own initiative. Even against other
immortals, Reed had little real difficulty, suffering only minor setbacks
against immortals witht he same genetic heritage who were raised with their
birthright.
