Kenniston felt the chill of premonition—a shapeless terror that grew into a thing too evil to be borne alone.

City at World’s End
New York : F. Fell, 1951. –
239 p. ; 20 cm. – (Fell’s Science Fiction Library ; 51-10074)
This is the story of a present-day town and its people – a small Midwestern city whose fifty thousand inhabitants are suddenly flung into an unprecedented and terrifying situation.
When a strange scientific cataclysm strikes, Middletown and all its people find themselves hurled out of their own time into the far future of Earth – an Earth grown old and alien and dying, an Earth long ago abandoned by man. Here is the story of pompous Mayor Garris, and of Johnson, the scared electrician; of Hubble, the scientist, and of Mrs. Adams, who worried about her roses; of lovely Carol Lane and of John Kenniston, who felt a fatal guilt; or all the bankers, bakers, millhands, housewives, old folk and children, who find themselves and their town forever marooned at the end of the world.
And when, at last, these people of the present meet the folk of the far future, the folk whose civilization stretches across the worlds of a thousand stars – then the present and the future clash in dramatic conflict on the dying, forgotten Earth.

It was ten o’clock, solar time, when disaster struck. At exactly the same moment, gravium mines on Mercury, Mars and Saturn were totally destroyed by an unidentified army. Without gravium – the life-blood of interplanetary civilization – the system would perish.
Meanwhile, Captain Future struggled on the floor of a moving space craft, his arms and legs bound by steel ropes. He did not know why he’d been captured – only that the system was in grave danger – that he was needed…
As Captain Future was plunged through space, towards a deadly orb of flaming gases – the raging inferno of the sun – he planned his daring escape. It was to be the most dangerous gamble of his life.

The President gaped as a guard appeared in the door-way and pointed his weapon at the fanged being.
“Don’t shoot”, Carthew cried, but too late. The beast lay dead on the floor.
Carthew sighed deeply as he confirmed his fears. The corpse on the floor was Sperling, his best secret agent, transformed into this hairy brute by the dread peril that threatened to destroy them all.
