    Summary

    Martin Halsted is a tramp who once dreamed of exploring Penelopeia, the world he calls home. However, after being framed for murdering his best friend forces him to abandon these dreams and live as an outlaw, the best the man hopes for is evading incarceration each day and drinking himself to sleep each night. His life veers in its course when he attempts to rob Namo, a sprightly, botanically-inclined faun woman who, through her exasperating and unceasing optimism, manages to rekindle Martin's hopes for his own future. Through their travels across entire continents, Martin discovers that his faun companion harbors a troubled past of her own. Their shared loss binds them in a web of conspiracy woven by Fadina Afzal, whose motives are as inscrutable to the man as her methods are ruthless. To obtain the justice they seek, Martin and Namo must pursue Afzal's trail in a harrowing game of cat and mouse and thwart the looming specter of Penelopeia's bloody history that threatens to rear its ugly head once again. All the while, the pair must contend with their evolving feelings toward one another, as they journey across the planet seeking a justice far more vast than the human and faun comprehend.
