Tiger, Tiger — W. Michael Farmer

Dreams of a fiery jaguar haunt Henry Grace when his old friend, Pancho Villa, fighting a civil war, asks for help. Henry begins a long journey into darkness supporting Villa. It is a time of cold, ruthless calculation and a time of insanity; a time of betrayal and a time of loyalty; a time of deadly enemies and a time of unseen friends; a time of revenge and a time of justice; a time of secrets and a time of answers hidden in a dream. Most importantly, it is a time when Henry discovers what is true about his own self.
