Physicist Lance Barley couldn't explain the presence of a half-naked woman in his laboratory.

The consequences would be serious for him. He knew the laboratory had been securely locked. It was impossible for anyone to have entered, and the place was empty before he started up the generators in the Transmutation Laboratory.

However, following completion of his experiment, the lights had come on - and there she was: an exquisitely beautiful woman - Nebula.

Her atoms had been scattered; she was the sole survivor of an alien race, and now she was making plans to exterminate mankind.

Praise for John Russell Fearn



"... A pioneer of science fiction [... ] he was one of the Greats of the earlier ages, and his name should be there with Hugo Gernsback, John W. Campbell, Stanley G. Weinbaum, Murray Leinster, and all the others whose thoughts and works formulated today's modern science fiction." - John Carnell, New Worlds

John Russell Fearn was an extremely prolific and popular British writer, who began in the American pulps, then almost single-handedly drove the post-World War II boom in British publishing with a flood of science fiction, detective stories, westerns, and adventure fiction. He was so popular that one of his pseudonyms became the editor of Vargo Statten's Science Fiction Magazine in the 1950's. His work is noted for its vigor and wild imagination. He has always had a substantial cult following and has been popular in translation around the world.
