Follow the Futuremen as the greatest feud of all time catapults them into the fifth dimension. Chapter 1: Prison Moon AS THE tiny, star-like disk of the Sun sank behind the bleak rock plain, a whistle shrilled harshly through the chill dusk.“Attention!” barked a tall Saturnian guard.The hundreds of convicts in gray uniforms who had been excavating beryllium ore from the rock pits, stopped work. They shuffled sluggishly into columns and then stood waiting in sullen silence.These prisoners were a motley lot, representing every world in the Solar System. There were red-skinned Martians, brutal-faced Earthmen, sulky Neptunians with gray skins, and sly-looking white Venusians.This dreary, forbidding little world was Cerberus, one of the three moons of the planet Pluto. Here was located the great, escape-proof Interplanetary Prison, the living tomb of the most dangerous criminals of all nine worlds.“March!” snapped the guard. And the columns of convicts shuffled toward the distant, frowning mass of Interplanetary Prison.A prisoner in the last column glanced furtively at the guards.
