Es wird befürchtet, dass dieser in die Kreisbahn der Zufallswelten geraten ist. Wenn er nicht bald eine Pforte findet, die ihn zurückbringt, kann er für immer verloren sein. Doch nicht nur die treue Besatzung der Ciguri weiß um Grubers missliche Lage. Auch seine Gegner sind im dicht auf den Fersen: Kaiser Sper Gossi hat geschworen, alle Hebel in Bewegung zu setzen, um Gruber in die Hände zu bekommen. Schlimmer hätte es den Major kaum treffen können ? Der Gestrandete versucht derweil mit Hilfe eines Buches, das er zufällig entdeckte und das zu seiner Verblüffung das Abenteuer, in dem er sich gerade befindet, erzählt, einen Hinweis zu finden, wie es mit ihm weitergehen könnte
