| Summary |
"Phantom Out of Time" by Nelson S. Bond is an eerie novel of science fiction written in the early 1940s. The story revolves around Dirk Morris, a brave rebel leader fighting against the oppressive rule of Graed Garroway, the Overlord of Earth. As the narrative unfolds, Morris faces his impending execution but is unexpectedly transported to the alien world of Nadron, where he discovers the true potential of his leader’s invention, the teleport. The opening portion of the novel introduces a tense scenario where Morris has vowed to sacrifice himself to save his comrades from the tyranny of Garroway. Throughout this gripping introduction, Morris's determination and bravery shine through as he interacts with friends Neil Hardesty and Vurrth, who express their solidarity in the fight for freedom. The narrative builds tension as Morris faces execution and revealingly enters a mysterious chamber designed by his late leader. Instead of death, Morris experiences a bizarre transformation, leading him to Nadron, where he meets Rima, the daughter of a wise alien named Slador. The chapter closes on a tantalizing note of potential rebellion and love, setting the stage for further adventures and conflict in the fight against Garroway's oppressive regime.
