Who Speaks of Conquest?
Earth faced a choice between eventual colonization at the hands of a ruthless aggressor or immediate action against the whole galaxy! And Stephen Brady, Commander of the Terran forces, was the man to make that decision of cosmic importance.
Behind the immediate enemy--the Centaurans--the diabolical Rihnans ruled with unchallenged might, backed by the most advanced psychological and technological weapons. To attack now would be the greatest challenge the Earth would ever have to meet!
The odds were deadly, but Brady knew that if he would not speak now for conquest, he--and all Earth--might remain silent in defeat for all eternity!
