| Summary | "Daughters of Doom" by H. B. Hickey is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative unfolds in a menacing and enigmatic world beyond Ventura B, where the protagonist, Ben Sessions, uncovers the sinister mysteries surrounding the evil daughters of an alien civilization. The book explores themes of deception, survival, and the clash between humanity and a formidable extraterrestrial force. The story follows Ben Sessions as he embarks on a perilous journey after a clerical mistake leads to the discovery of a strange, undetectable substance found in a spacecraft's rocket tube. This incident prompts Ben's superiors to send him into the unknown beyond Ventura B, where he encounters a planet dominated by powerful women with malevolent intentions. Captured upon arrival, Ben learns of their plans to invade Earth by replacing explorers with duplicates. He ultimately rallies other Earth men imprisoned on the planet and devises a daring escape. With the help of Earth’s battle fleet, Ben and his allies thwart the aliens' schemes, ensuring humanity's safety from annihilation. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
