Triplanetary
Triplanetary is the opening book of E. E. Smith’s celebrated Lensman saga in its expanded form, published in 1948. It reaches back to the very beginning, telling how two ancient and opposed civilisations, the benevolent Arisians and the ruthless Eddorians, have secretly shaped the history of the galaxy and of the earth across countless ages. Against this vast background the book carries the reader from the fall of Atlantis through future wars to the first great struggle between humanity and the forces of tyranny in space. It sets the stage for one of the grandest and most influential series in all of science fiction. This free PDF and EPUB offers the complete novel.
