Third World is a jumping-on point for readers unfamiliar with the Finder world; the first 7 chapters feature Jaeger as an impromptu tour guide, as he weaves through the wide variety of people and cultures packed into the domed city of Anvard, fighting traffic, etiquette and the city itself like a ninja mailman, hell-bent on delivering each package. Part 8 begins with Jaeger mysteriously teleported to a wasteland outside. Once he finds his bearings (and, oddly enough, another bag of packages to deliver) he ends up in a settlement called Third World (among other things,) following a trail of clues pointing to his true nature, while mysterious figures from his past pursue him.
