Dalamna

For two years Doug Dhar has lived among the Eudap, a matriarchal race of spacefaring reptilians. They call him Dalamna, Ambassador, though they treat him by turns like a commodity and a nuisance. In the second book in the Last Earthman trilogy, Doug descends further into the planet’s tangle of guerrilla wars and palace intrigues. He loses old friends, finds improbable new allies, and begins to suspect that those back on the ruined Earth who sent him here had been wrong about everything.
