That Worlds May Live - Tapa blanda

Armchair fiction presents extra large editions of the best in classic science fiction novels and short stories, complete with original illustrations. Here’s one of the true early classics of science fiction, penned by noted sci-fi author Nelson S. Bond. While on a routine photography mission in outer space, scientist Gary Lane made a terrifying discovery. It appeared the Universe was no longer expanding the way it was supposed to, an event directly at odds with the theories of Modern Science. The Solar System was, in fact, contracting, and as it did so its very existence was threatened. Mankind had, at best, only a few months to live. Even worse, it appeared that this impending Armageddon was not a natural event, but caused by something from “outside,” by an alien enemy far beyond the boundaries of the Solar System. So with the fate of Civilization in his hands, Gary Lane set off on a frantic voyage from planet to planet, desperately seeking to forge an interplanetary alliance against unknown enemies . . . enemies hell-bent on destroying every living thing in the Solar System!
