Publisher's Synopsis
What actual result is there in the act of conquest? What is its cube root? -- These weren't questions that would have come to Jan. But the man in the hunting blind -- great-great-grandson of the folks who'd conquered his country and murdered most of the people -- the short, fat creepy man who tried to shoot him -- might have told the history. But he was the sad result of his people's fat and happy culture. And he didn't have much to say now that he was dead, anyway.
