It is very difficult to create a short, meaningful summary of the story told in PR 3329.Honzajc hat geschrieben: ↑05.06.2025, 23:02About 3329..
This forum is the only relevant one where we can find info about the story in the novels...
Thank you all
This is also difficult in German.
The plot is very confusing and volatile.
The title of the novel is "No Day for Honesty" and this title comes into play in many ways.
We have two main plot levels:
• There is the narrative level of Perry Rhodan:
He returns on board the PHOENIX with the small metal box recovered in the previous novel and with the unconscious being Aelor, who is a brain symbiote from the Ennu Malor race and has taken up residence in the cloned body of Perry's wife Sichu Dorksteiger.
Aelor had lost his left hand in a robot attack in the novel 3328.
On board the PHOENIX there's a lot of
confusion between the Phoenix AI, Perry Rhodan and Aelor. At times Rhodan even loses his status as commander of the ship because he is dismissed by the AI, which has been deceived by Aelor.
Finally, the metal box is opened by Perry Rhodan. Inside is a black substance that jumps to Rhodan's right hand and turns it into the shadow hand that kind we already know from Cameron Rioz.
• The second narrative level is almost more confusing:
The main characters are Atlan and Shrell on the dark planet Kushlur.
Atlan, Gucky and Dr. Barstow are prisoners and hostages of Shrell, who is the leader of the Restorats. The Restorats are the opponents of the so-called Local Remainers. Both are parties to a political-military conflict among the Leun. The Leun as a whole consist of several species, so they are multi-species based.
The so-called Local Remainers are supposedly fighting for Reginald Bull, Perry Rhodan's close friend who went missing in the Agolei.
The Local Remainers attack Shrell's base on Kushlur and ultimately - born out of necessity - Atlan co-operates with Shrell.
A space battle develops around Kushlur.
At this moment, the PHOENIX returns, right in the middle of the space battle.
There are a number of military deceptions and tricks then following up in the storyline.
In the end, Perry Rhodan, Atlan, Gucky, Dr. Barstow and Shrell form an alliance of convenience and want to continue their journey on board the PHOENIX to the so-called Star Cube, where Perry Rhodan has to kill Reginald Bull.
That was Shrell's condition for shutting down the Burning Nothings on Terra and Luna.
Rhodan wants to save his friend and solve the problems otherwise.

My opinion:
A novel very difficult to read!
