Somewhere, somehow, the first moves have been made-the pattern is beginning to emerge. Someone-or something-is on the way to supreme power over all the planets held by Man.
And the Inter-stellar Corps is helpless to meet the threat-no normal man can hope to penetrate the conspiracy.
But-the Corps has a man who isn't normal, a man with a very strange weapon...his mind!
Cadet George Hanlon stood stiffly at attention. But as the long, long minutes dragged on and on, he found his hands, his spine and his forehead cold with the sweat of fear. He tried manfully to keep his eyes fixed steadily on that emotionless face before him, but found it almost impossible to do so. Tension grew and grew and grew in the room until it seemed the very walls must bulge, or the windows burst to relieve the pressure. The cadet felt he could not stand another minute of it without screaming. Why didnt that monster say something? What kind of torture was this, anyway? And why was he here in the first place? He couldnt think of a single reg he had broken-yet why else would he be called before Admiral Rogers, the dread Commandant of Cadets?
