THE COSMIC ADVENTURE CONTINUES....Star Man and his companions are caught in a diabolical time trap. Meanwhile on Mars, freedom fighter Lori Beldon and ex-spy David McKenna oppose absolute dictatorship by the ruthless autocrat, Vincent Cardwell. And what role will the lost Centaurians play in these conflicts? Yet, all this and more are but threads (perhaps woven by greater entitie4s) that will be woven together into a greater, climatic tapestry that will reach its completion when Star Man makes his return to Alpha.

Byrne, one of the legendary writers for the Golden Age of the pulp magazines, including, Amazing Stories, Imagination, Science Stories, and Other Worlds (where Star Man first saw its genesis in elements of his novel "Power Metal")
