"Destiny Uncertain" by Rog Phillips is a science fiction novel written during the early 1950s. The story explores themes of fate, free will, and the concept of destiny being predetermined by an unseen power. The narrative revolves around the idea that a being, likened to the embodiment of Fate, is actively writing the destinies of individuals and can determine life and death through a typewritten page that, when burned, transforms its content into reality. The plot follows Lin Grant, who, after a near-fatal car accident, finds himself inexplicably transported to a surreal realm where he encounters a robotic being tirelessly typing out destinies. He seizes a crucial piece of paper that denotes his and another person’s fate of dying in the accident. As he grapples with the significance of this paper, he realizes that as long as it remains intact, they cannot die. However, a mysterious figure, Hugo Fairchild, is determined to retrieve it, believing it to be a key to restoring control over fate. The story unfolds with Lin, joined by Dorothy Lake, the other car’s driver, as they navigate their newfound relationship and the looming threat of Fairchild, ultimately leading to a tense confrontation that will test whether they can escape their fated demise.
