Summary | "Triplanetary" by E. E. Smith is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The book explores themes of space travel, interplanetary conflict, and advanced technology, featuring the interplanetary liner "Hyperion" and its crew as they encounter a mysterious and dangerous enemy in the void of space. The story revolves around Captain Bradley, first officer Conway Costigan, and Clio Marsden, who must face an insidious plot involving pirates and toxic gas while battling to save themselves and their ship. The opening of the novel introduces the "Hyperion" as it travels through space, highlighted by a tense atmosphere caused by reports of pirate activity and unexplained disappearances of other ships. As Captain Bradley prepares for potential dangers, an unseen assailant sets off a deadly gas within the ship, incapacitating most of the crew and passengers. Costigan bravely struggles against time to save Clio and confront the threat, revealing the excitement and danger that lie ahead. The section sets the stage for a story filled with adventure, peril, and a battle against dark forces at play in the cosmos. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
