简介：The Planet beckoned them from space--& closed round them like a venus Fly Trap!

Captain Mike Ross finds himself leading an interplanetary expedition to an anonymous planet that welcomes them with a homing beam & then seals shut around them. Their ship is sealed against them & they are hurled into a wholly inhospitable desert.

"Assailed by strange perils & even stranger temptations, the little group stumbled towards its destiny--Mike Ross, the pilot, Sara Foster, the big game hunter, blind George Smith, & the odious Friar Tuck. Before them was a legend made flesh, around them were creatures of myth & mystery, close behind them stalked Nemesis. The doll, the little wooden painted doll, was to be their salvation. Or their damnation, for each might choose, & find, his own Nirvana."
