Summary: "Nomad" by Wesley Long is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. It explores themes of space exploration, interplanetary conflicts, and the psychological intricacies of survival against the backdrop of a technologically advanced universe. The story primarily follows Guy Maynard, an aide in the Terran Space Patrol, who finds himself embroiled in a perilous situation involving Martians who seek secret information regarding a spaceship called the "Orionad". At the start of the narrative, Guy Maynard leaves the Bureau of Exploration Building at Sahara Base only to be immediately confronted by a Martian holding a weapon. Seized by Martians, he is taken aboard their ship, where they demand information about the clandestine mission of the "Orionad". Despite their threats, Maynard adheres to a code of silence, leading to a torturous predicament that tests his resolve. As he struggles with his predicament, the narrative shifts focus to Ben Williamson, who sets out on a rescue mission, ultimately revealing the lengths the Terran Space Patrol will go to save him. The opening portion lays a foundation for a story filled with tension, moral dilemmas, and the complexities of interspecies interactions in a vast and often hostile universe.
