Synopsis
Tarrano, intoxicated by the conquest of two worlds--Venus and Mars--urged on by the power lust, came to Earth to bring it under control, also. But Earth didn't wish outside supervision, thereby precipitating, in the year 2430, the most terrific conflict known to man.
His campaigns were featured by scientific atrocities, but the stubborn resistance of Earth forced Tarrano to abandon his plans and flee to Venus where he received a none too warm welcome in his stronghold, the Gold City. Encouraged by his failureto win the Earth, the Venusians revolted. Even a man of destiny must meet his Waterloo, and Tarrano met his with unflinching courage and daring.
Positively the most unique story of the future ever written!
