Explore "Recruit for Andromeda" by Stephen Marlowe on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
His name was Temple and it was the year 1960.
Christopher Temple had problems. He had his own life, too, which had nothing to do with the life of the real Christopher Temple, departed thirty-odd years later on the Nowhere Journey. Or rather, this _was_ Christopher Temple, living his second E. C. R. Temple who had lost once, and who, if he lost again, would take the dreams and hopes of the Western world down into the dust of defeat with him. But as the fictional (although in a certain sense, real) Christopher Temple of 1960, he knew nothing of this.
