| Summary | "Vandals of the Void" by Robert Wilson is a science fiction novel originally published in the spring of 1945. Set in a future where humanity has made strides in interplanetary travel, the book delves into the consequences of alien organisms threatening Earth. The plot explores themes of survival, human resilience, and the fight against a seemingly insurmountable enemy from the cosmos. The story follows Art Douglas, a scientist at the Interplanetary Research Institute, who discovers a strange, destructive organism that begins to wreak havoc on Earth. Following a series of catastrophic events triggered by these creatures, Art is thrust into a battle to save Los Angeles amid a growing crisis that threatens all of humanity. Alongside his colleague, Elene Moor, and a Martian scientist named Klalmar-lan, Art uncovers a deeper conspiracy involving not just the hell-worms and their alien creators, but also betrayal from within Earth’s ranks. As they work together to eliminate the threat posed by these invaders and prevent further destruction, the novel combines action, intrigue, and a reflection on the ethical dilemmas of scientific advancement.
