Summary: "Children of the Lens" by E. E. Smith is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The book continues the saga of the Galactic Patrol and its conflict with the Boskonians, focusing on the legacy of the Kinnison family. At the heart of the story is Christopher Kinnison, the child of the legendary Lensman Kimball Kinnison, as he and his sisters begin to navigate the complexities of their inherited powers and responsibilities within a galaxy plagued by crime and chaos. The opening of "Children of the Lens" establishes the background of a civilization recovering from the Boskonian War, led by Christopher Kinnison, who is a product of selective breeding designed for greatness. As the story unfolds, we witness his initial abstractions concerning inexplicable disturbances throughout the galaxy that threaten the peace his father fought hard to preserve. The narrative moves briskly between the interactions of the Kinnison family members, the initiation of Christopher’s responsibilities, and the activation of their latent powers, setting the stage for a new, potentially menacing chapter in the ongoing struggle between the forces of civilization and chaos.
