Tarrano the Conqueror

Matter, Space, and Time

by Ray Cummings

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!
