| Summary | "The Affair of the Brains" by Anthony Gilmore is a science fiction novelette written in the early 20th century. The story follows Hawk Carse, a daring adventurer known for his fierce confrontations with his archenemy, the cunning scientist Dr. Ku Sui. As Carse prepares to meet Ku Sui, he plunges into a treacherous game of wits that raises the stakes of power and intellect threatening lives across the universe. The opening of the story sets the stage for a thrilling adventure, with Carse contemplating the perilous rendezvous with his nemesis. Following a violent confrontation that claimed many lives, including that of a crew member and leaving him with a dangerous chance to confront Ku Sui directly, Carse resolves to set a trap for his adversary. With his loyal companion Friday and a captive brigand, Sako, Carse navigates the treacherous space terrain aboard Judd's ship, the "Scorpion", as he grapples with the schemes of Ku Sui, who has proven to be a master of deception. As they prepare for the fateful meeting, tensions rise with the looming threat of Ku Sui’s cunning expertise, foreshadowing action and intrigue in the battle of brains and brawn that is about to unfold.
