Time-travel, aliens, war and why we fight it. George Corson, earthman, is sent on secret mission to end a long smoldering war with the birdlike inhabitants of the planet, Uria, 6000 years in the future, only to be used as a pawn by powerful god-like beings. Is there such a thing as the ultimate weapon? Can war be ended once & for all? Is the destruction of the universe necessary to achieve peace? Originally published in France under the title Les Seigneurs de la Guerre, this book is a novel of powerful imagery and scope whose concept of war as a monstrous self-perpetuating parasite fattening off all intelligent life will arrest all who read it.
