Flesh After 800 years of exploring the stars, Space Commander Stagg had returned to Earth. But Earth had become a new world. Where science and technology had reigned, now there were agricultural and tribal warfare. And mankind worshipped the Goddess and was content. They named Stagg "Sunhero" and performed the secret rites. Endowed with the virility of a nation, and with foot-high antlers throbbing on his head, he set out on an orgiastic cross-country jaunt. He was the Sunhero, king of the Earth and all its willing women. But how long he would hold his throne, only the Goddess could say... Lord Tyger My Mother is an ape. My Father is God. I come from the land of ghosts. So sings Ras Tyger, Philip Jose Farmer's monumental incarnation of a modern-day Jungle Lord. Savage, heroic, and beautiful, he is master of the world. And he rules his kingdom with sex, savagery, and sublime innocence. Until one day, with the landing of the great whirling "birds," the insane reality of his existence begins to unfold...and plunges him into an incredible quest for the truth which cannot end until he comes face to face - with God.
