Who will stop the planetary marauders?
For 6000 years the great Carina Empire ruled the galaxy - but slowly, under the remorseless erosion of centuries, the Empire faded as its Imperial bloodline ran out in weaklings who paid tribute to the wild, untamed Barbarians of the Rim. Finally came the day when the Barbarian legions struck at Carina itself, destroying in a single day and night the mightiest empire in galactic history. 
In the ages that followed, the rest of the empire decayed, its individual suns and worlds losing contact, isolated Star-Kings fighting to hold their own cultures together . . . and failing. Ironically, only the Barbarians themselves remained the only coordinated power among the Near Stars. Their fleets drifted the star-trails, looting and destroying everything in their way.
One world alone stood against the dark night of savagery that was engulfing the galaxy - Parlion, the planet of the Star Magicians. And at last came the final battle for civilization in the stars.

It is the ideal introduction to the background of the LORD OF THE RINGS for the legions of new fans.

"C'est ainsi que Thongor le Barbare avait chassé de ses terres les druides maudits qui avaient longtemps exercé leur tyrannie sur les neuf cités de l'Ouest. Mais au cours des années qui suivirent, depuis les confins du monde, Zaar commença à étendre son ombre inquiétante sur les jeunes cités. Et sur les noirs autels du Chaos, les neuf magiciens de Zaar proférèrent une terrible malédiction contre le roi-guerrier qui avait chassé leur confrérie des régions de l'Ouest. Ils jurèrent dans un horrible serment que le destin de Thongor serait si abominable qu'il ne pourrait s'effacer de la mémoire des générations à venir."
