The Terran Confederation was locked in grim conflict with the brutal, warrior nation of Fareet. On Earth's galactic outpost, Thule, the fighting was fiercest. Neither side had spacecraft capable of reaching the other's home planet, so Thule was needed as a stepping stone. Whoever controlled Thule would win the war. To supply Thule, the Terran Confederation developed the Cyclotron Tunnel, a beam of pure energy that could send supplies at the speed of light - and the Fareet did their best to wreck it... and the stranded Earth army.
