Summary "The Sons of Japheth" by Richard Wilson is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story explores themes of time travel and the consequences of human actions, centering around a pilot tasked with eradicating humanity to ensure the survival of animals. This provocative narrative delves into the implications of meddling with history and the moral questions that arise from such actions. The plot follows Pilot Officer Roy Vanjan as he becomes one of the last survivors after Earth's destruction during World War V. He meets Dr. Garfield Gar in a space station, who assigns him the colossal task of traveling back in time to eliminate Noah and his family during the biblical Flood, specifically targeting humanity while sparing the animals. As Vanjan embarks on this mission and successfully kills Noah and his kin, he anticipates a reset of history that will allow animals to flourish. However, his journey results in unforeseen consequences, leading to his own transformation and the realization that despite his actions, life on Earth endures. The novel culminates in a twist of fate that illustrates the complexities of existence and the unintended repercussions of one's choices in time travel. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
