Captain Future 05 - Captain Future And The Seven Space Stones (Winter 1941) - Plot & Excerpts
“The lost secret of Thuro Thuun — the mystery of ages — and part of the key is right here in my hand!” gasped the young archeologist.The jewel seemed like an icy, menacing eye peering up at him. Its facets, unworn even by incalculable ages, reflected the white glow of the uranite bulbs in the ceiling of the study.This room, on an upper level of the great Institute of Interplanetary Science in New York, held the relics that the young Earth scientist had brought home from faraway worlds. Ancient Jovian heads of black stone stared down at him. Unhuman metal busts from beneath Neptune’s sea leered from shadowy corners. A grotesque Uranian idol of dark cave-wood towered with webbed hands raised in a threatening gesture.But Lester was blind to everything except the strange, cold blue gem in his hand.

Nor did he hear the door of his study softly being opened.“Part of the secret of Thuro Thuun, locked in this space stone!”
