"The Weapon From Eternity" by Dwight V. Swain is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The story follows Jarl Corvett, a hardened raider, who embarks on a dangerous mission to locate his ally, the brilliant but tortured inventor Ktar Wassreck. Set against a backdrop of galactic conflict and political intrigue, the narrative explores themes of loyalty, betrayal, and the moral implications of power. At the start of the book, Jarl Corvett leads a small crew on a stealthy mission to infiltrate a heavily guarded facility on the asteroid Vesta, aiming to rescue Wassreck and uncover a mysterious weapon that has the potential to shift the balance of power within the Federation. As Jarl presses through the facility’s shadows, tension rises among his crew, particularly with Ungo, a devoted Jovian who is reluctant to risk his life for a seemingly hopeless cause. Soon, they reach Wassreck’s workshop, only to discover that the stakes are far higher than anticipated, leading to a confrontation involving Ylana, the commissioner’s daughter, who possesses secrets that could alter the course of the conflict. The opening sets the stage for a gripping and complex tale of survival and moral dilemmas in a richly imagined universe. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
