Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"A Trace of Memory" by Keith Laumer is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The story explores themes of memory, identity, and adventure, following the protagonist, Legion, who finds himself entwined in a mysterious situation involving a man named Foster who has lost his memories and seems to have a past shrouded in secrets. As Legion is drawn into Foster's tale of danger and intrigue, readers are taken on a journey through a universe filled with unexpected twists and challenges. The opening portion of the narrative introduces readers to an intriguing mix of sci-fi elements and suspense. Initially, it portrays Legion's current state of desperation and his encounter with Foster, who seems to be looking for a companion to join him on a perilous adventure. They discuss strange occurrences and the ominous presence of “Hunters,” suggesting a blend of both past memories and fresh threats. As the pair embarks on a quest that hints at larger mysteries—such as a journal written in coded language and supernatural entities—tension builds, leaving readers eager to discover the truth about Foster's strange past and the implications it has for both characters.
