They named the planet Chaos X, because one hemisphere was not in this universe—and no one who ventured there would ever return. They named the other universe Ultra, because it was beyond the laws of the Milky Way galaxy. It was only by means of Ultra's non-Euclidean physics that men could travel the starways. They named the ruler of that "immobile" planet Fury, because that was the effect of his power on people. But they were afraid to call Craig Star Gazer by any other name, because he was the space captain who was going to cross into Fury's domain and wrench his loved one from Ultra's power—and this was something that no one had ever done before except the legendary Orpheus.

Brian M. Stableford
Author · 51 books
Brian Michael Stableford is a British science fiction writer who has published more than 70 novels. His earlier books were published under the name Brian M. Stableford, but more recent ones have dropped the middle initial and appeared under the name Brian Stableford. He has also used the pseudonym Brian Craig for a couple of very early works, and again for a few more recent works. The pseudonym derives from the first names of himself and of a school friend from the 1960s, Craig A. Mackintosh, with whom he jointly published some very early work.
