Synopsis: From the Front Cover: A love story that reaches beyond the boundaries of a single lifetime... From the Rear Cover: He came from a jeweled mountain in the center of the universe ... The Monkey Prince was a god of awesome power and curiosity who somersaulted through the dimensions of time to reach the harsh, snow-peaked Earthland of Dza. There he searched for the secret of Chos, key to perfect knowledge and compassion. And there he met the demoness Drolma, who took his heart in an instant and claimed it for all eternity. Their passionate union spawned generations of mortals destined to follow in their exalted quest: to search for Chos, and to forever wage battle with the Black Shen, master of monsters, black magic, and nightmares—the evil destroyer of all love and wonder!
