Caine--an otherworld warrior played by professional actor Hari Michaelson in a far-future reality show beamed home to entertain fans on Earth--returns to the Boedecken, the site of the battle that made his career. As he makes his way through the city, encountering spies, warrior-priests and assassins, he also wades through memories of the fight. The political machinations of the present-day story tend to detract from the tight, well-choreographed flashbacks.
