(as on the back of the first edition)

War on the Moon - On a strange and secret assignment, General John Bravais rushes to Tamboula, North Africa. There he is surgically transformed into an Invulnerable Man and catapulted into a nightmare world where he finds himself:

Pursued by A PLAGUE OF DEMONS, savage "dog things," that walk like beasts but use their hands like a man...

Transplanted into a gigantic chromalloy robot - a slave machine waging war on the moon - controlled by a fantastic intellect sheltered in a huge silver bowl...

Trapped inside ten thousand tons of inert, dead metal, with his mind, in a cat-like body, invades the ominous tower of the Over-mind in a final desperate effort to save humanity...
