excellent story

Dumarest is on the planet of Toy seeking information about Earth. There he gets swept up into a plot to overthrow the Toymaster, who runs the economy as a tyrant. In the end, the Toymaster is overthrown, but all Dumarest gets is the information that Earth is also known as Terra. So his quest continues.

Toyman/Dumarest #3

This is an interesting book in that Dumarest is on a planet which is heavily involved in luxury fabric as spun by spiders. However, our hero's interest is in the super computer on the planet. Interesting interactions with the Cyclan; intersting interactions with the masters of the spiders.
