Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Tulan" by C. C. MacApp is a science fiction novel written during the late 1950s. The book revolves around the themes of loyalty, leadership, and the consequences of war as it follows Admiral Tulan, who is faced with the daunting task of leading his fleet against seemingly insurmountable odds while contending with a government that demands their surrender. This narrative explores both the political machinations of interplanetary conflict and the personal toll it takes on those involved. The story follows Admiral Tulan as he grapples with the Council of Four's orders for surrender after a devastating conflict with Coar. Disillusioned by his leadership and the perceived cowardice of his government, Tulan defies orders, rallying his fleet for a final campaign aimed at confronting Coar and seeking peace. The novel depicts Tulan's internal and external battles as he orchestrates strategic maneuvers, making critical decisions that affect his crew and his family, all while confronting the ultimate consequences of their choices in a war-torn solar system. As tensions reach a climax, Tulan must navigate the complexities of duty, honor, and survival in a universe where the fate of planets hangs in the balance.
