Soon mankind will quake in fear, for Nicholas has unleashed the horror of Izdran of The Thousand Lives-and he is not human...Join Stephen Germain and his devoted comrades as they contend with the evil nature of man-and alien-to secure the sovereignty of both Earth and Mars, while the people of two worlds stand aghast and marvel at the abilities of a super human pitted against something not human at all.
