Norden could not trust his own / darkly terrifying thoughts and / impulses. Yet he kept a life / watch over the whole human race.
_The spread of an alien culture across wide wastes of space, with / its almost inevitable, remorseless destruction of human life, has / chilling implications even for the literal-minded. When mirrored / in the bright, adventurous prism of modern science fiction it / offers unparalleled opportunities to a writer of Lester del Rey's / stature. We're sure you'll agree that he's scored a triumph in this / brilliantly imaginative yarn._
