The Gorgon came from some time line far across the multiple worlds, It moved among men, looking always as though it was one of them. But it was not a man; it was a destroyer! This creature would willingly destroy the universe, in all its alternate world-lines. It could not tolerate other forms of life, could not permit them to exist. The first a world knew of the beast in its midst was when its citizens began dying, horribly, and then it was already too late. First printing of a paperback original.
