The war of the Universe — last of the famous Lensman series
It was beginning to look as if no one could prevent the destruction of the universe. For a strange intelligence was directing the destruction of all civilization from the icy depths of space.
Kim Kinnison of the Patrol was one of the few men who knew how near the end was. And in the last desperate plan to save all life, he knew he had to use his children as bait for the evil powers of the planet Ploor.
CHILDREN OF THE LENS is the sixth and concluding volume of Doc Smith's Lensman series — an epic which stands as one of the greatest classics of science-fiction.
