Legend Of The Fire Eye

Eons ago, the Conclave of Sensi chose Cera as a laboratory for creating consciousness. True, the work was experimental, but it had been successful long before the rebellion that threatened to destroy the planet. Led by the High Priestess Khyan and her first apostle, Rhee, ten members of the Khyan Circle of Fostering decide upon a desperate plan for survival. Escaping a fiery destruction is only the beginning. The bizarre world that appears beneath them demands new risks. They must become something far different than what they have been. High up in the Fourth Valley of the White Mountains in this strange new homeland, the repulsive upright ones await their destiny. They have lived here for ages past, but they aren’t prepared for life in the future. Symbolic features in Legend of the Fire Eye promise to give it a niche in the "New Myth" now being written. At the same time, it will fit well on the traditional fantasy bookshelf.

Shocking and sacreligious, Story of the Eye is the fullest expression of Bataille’s obsession with the closeness of sex, violence and death. Yet it is also hallucinogenic in its power, and is one of the erotic classics of the twentieth century.
