"The Passing of Ku Sui" by Anthony Gilmore is a science fiction novelette written in the early 20th century. The story is centered around the dramatic conflict between Captain Hawk Carse and the sinister scientist Dr. Ku Sui, who has devised a way to control the brains of five great Earth scientists. As Carse seeks to thwart Ku Sui's nefarious plans, he is joined by his companions, including Master Scientist Eliot Leithgow, in a thrilling adventure that spans the solar system. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to Hawk Carse, who is recovering from the aftermath of his last encounter with Ku Sui. His friends, Leithgow and Friday, anxiously await his return after he embarks on a perilous mission against Ku Sui, who is alive and plotting with enhanced powers. As Carse reunites with his friends, he reveals the ongoing threats posed by Ku Sui, including the existence of a hidden asteroid where the sinister scientist conducts his experiments. The opening sets a tense atmosphere filled with anticipation, as Carse outlines his plans to confront Ku Sui and free the trapped scientists’ consciousnesses from their eerie captivity, establishing a gripping backdrop for the ensuing action and drama.
