Gerun, the Heretic

INCINERATE THE BOOK! SAVE THE MAN! Who is Jon Missionary, the half-wit, and why are he and his book so dangerous? On the planet Kanran-9, the religious establishment is threatened by anyone questioning the status quo. And the Emperor's beautiful daughter, Melina-Lu, doesn't help matters any when she falls in love with the heretic Missionary. Years later, the Religio-College has returned to power, and with a weaker Emperor sitting astride the Kanran-9 throne, it now begins purging the half-wit's descendants. Will Gerun Missionary survive the pogrom long enough to learn why so many people are desperate to kill him? WILLIAM MALTESE has written over 150 books of psychological case studies, romance, adventure/espionage, sci-fi & fantasy, erotica, western, and horror, including many other novels published by Borgo Press.
