| Summary | "Loot of the Void" by Edwin K. Sloat is a science fiction novel written during the early 20th century. The story revolves around the theme of adventure in space, focusing on the quest for hidden treasure in a perilous extraterrestrial setting. The characters navigate through a universe filled with danger, betrayal, and the supernatural, particularly in relation to the infamous Captain Halkon, a pirate whose legacy and treasure propel the plot forward. The narrative follows Dick Penrun, the grandson of the legendary space-pirate Captain Halkon, who becomes embroiled in a treacherous pursuit for his grandfather's hidden treasure on Titan, a moon of Saturn. After witnessing a murder linked to the treasure, Penrun learns of a map leading to the treasure's location, only to discover that others are also after it, including a gang led by a smugglers' ringleader named Helgers. As Penrun confronts monstrous spiders and human antagonists, he becomes increasingly entangled in the conflict, ultimately teaming up with Irma Boardle, a girl associated with Helgers. Together, they face formidable dangers both from the monstrous inhabitants of Titan and the ruthless gang, leading to heart-pounding encounters as they strive to claim the treasure and escape the lethal environment.
