Mirando, Michael Yesterday's Revenge Produced from Comet January 41 Greg Weeks, Mary Meehan and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Yesterday's Revenge" by H. L. Nichols is a science fiction novel written during the early 20th century. The storyline focuses on a dystopian future dominated by a tyrannical Master who controls an advanced regime through robots and technology, exemplifying themes of power, control, and the consequences of war. The narrative weaves through a world recovering from devastating wars while the Master attempts to dominate both the present and the past, driven by his complex desires and fears. The plot unfolds as the Master, ensnared by his own power, becomes obsessed with a girl from the past whom he views through a Time Visor, an invention created by Technician Heidkamp. As the Master desires to pull her from 1940 into his present day, Heidkamp secretly harbors a deep hatred for him due to personal losses caused by the Master's cruelty. With insight and cunning, Heidkamp ultimately seizes the opportunity to trap the Master in his own creation, using the Time Visor against him. The climax reveals not only the Master's downfall but also the potential for a new beginning as the revolutionary society prepares to rise against tyranny. This gripping tale explores the conflict between oppression and freedom, while illustrating the consequences of obsessive ambition. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
