The Magic Labyrinth
The answers behind the mind-bending origins of Riverworld lie at last within reach, as the remarkable gathering of Earthlings – including Sir Richard Francis Burton, Samuel Clemens, Alice Liddell Hargreaves (the real-life Alice in Wonderland), Cyrano de Bergerac, Ulysses S.

The astonishing secrets lie within the Dark Tower - but only for those brave enough to seek them and wise enough to decipher them ...
