About this book
On the desert world Ghakk, the descendants of a wrecked starship's crew have split into separate mutant peoples. One young man, born long-legged among the legless Cru, was hidden by his parents until grown, and now flees westward ahead of Cru warriors who follow the law that no monster may live in their valley. The ship that brought his ancestors lies in a dried-up lake. Basil Wells's short story appeared in the first issue of Orbit Science Fiction, September 1953.
