Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Evil Out of Onzar" by Mark Ganes is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The story unfolds in a galaxy where tension simmers between the ambitious Onzarians and the Allied Systems, particularly highlighting the rise of the megalomaniacal leader Candar. The protagonist, Roger Thane, is embroiled in a dangerous political landscape where he must navigate treachery and war to protect valuable scientific knowledge crucial to the future of the galaxy. The beginning of the novel introduces Roger Thane as he witnesses an escalating confrontation between the Onzarian delegation, led by the fervently nationalistic Candar, and representatives of the Allied Systems. Thane learns about the historical and political complexities of Onzar, describing a society shaped by centuries of isolation and war, now on the brink of technological advancement but with a leader whose paranoia threatens to unleash widespread violence. As Thane is reassigned to protect the crucial scientist Manning Reine, he becomes entangled with Astrid Reine, who is desperate to save her father from the clutches of Candar's ambitions—setting the stage for a high-stakes conflict that intertwines personal and galactic stakes.
