Reseña del editor:

In year 2430, terror spreads when assassins strike down Earth's three major leaders at once. Were the treacherous Venusians behind the crime? Yet the leader of Venus Central State falls, too -- then the leader of Mars. Who is the Tarrano mentioned in the desperate warning?

In this fast-paced pulp classic, Jac Hallen of Inter-Allied News responds to an urgent message from his friend, brilliant scientist Dr. Brende. Hallen and Brende's beautiful daughter Eliza find themselves rushing to the North Pole -- into the clutches of Tarrano himself -- and then into the depths of interplanetary space!

Biografía del autor:

Ray Cummings (byname of Raymond King Cummings; 1887 - 1957) was an American author of science fiction, rated one of the "founding fathers of the science fiction pulp genre." He was born in New York City and died in Mount Vernon, New York. Cummings worked with Thomas Edison as a personal assistant and technical writer from 1914 to 1919. His most highly regarded work was the novel The Girl in the Golden Atom published in 1922, which was a consolidation of a short story by the same name published in 1919 (where Cummings combined the idea of Fitz James O'Brien's The Diamond Lens with H. G. Wells's The Time Machine) and a sequel, The People of the Golden Atom, published in 1920. His career resulted in some 750 novels and short stories, using also the pen names Ray King, Gabrielle Cummings, and Gabriel Wilson.
