Vortex Blaster

The galaxy is dying. Atomic vortices, uncontrolled and terrible, are devouring civilization planet by planet throughout space. The Lensmen, humanity's elite protectors, have thrown everything at these cosmic horrors and failed. Then one vortex destroys the home and family of Storm Cloud, brilliant atomic physicist. Grief becomes fuel. Science becomes weapon. Cloud wages a one-man war against the very forces that stole his future, hunting vortices across star systems in a desperate bid to save what remains. This is 1940s space opera at its most unhinged: a story about a man who loses everything and decides to take on entropy itself. It's big, loud, and absolutely committed to its premise. If you want science fiction that never apologizes for being exactly what it is, this is your book.
