Synopsis
"... The stuff that this man place in my hand just now is ice, which we could make only under process. If it is true that is is heaped about the poles, it can mean but one thing--that you and I are very, very old. OLD!"
As the strange man spoke these words to his beautiful companion, Professor Mason listened with interest, and amazement. The professor's entire life has been spent in tearing down dreams and theories, and forcing all things to the level of solid mathematics. But the sudden appearance of this magnificent couple in his study in Hazeltin Observatory was uncanny. Unearthly as they seemed there has to be a logical answer to the riddle of their arrival.
Professor Mason learns that the man is Alvas the Sansar, and that his people lived on the earth in the days when the polar wastes were a paradise. Alvas tells the Professor of the appearance of the Blood Red Cometl of the ethereal world hidden in the comet, of the girl of the stars and the great astronomer, Zin of Zar; and of the incredibly journey into another universe.
PEOPLE OF THE COMET is science fiction--with the sparkle of fantasy shining through the web of adventure, mystery and science.
