In the tradition of grand space opera from the pulp era, The Shadow of the Sund tells the story of the Brotherhood of Sabours, an interstellar alliance of psychic warrior-priests, more than ten thousand years in the future. In this first volume of The Brotherhood of Terror trilogy, three Sabour Monitors uncover a plot to destroy galactic civilization, which is tied to events that occurred a generation earlier. Armed with weapons that fire pure mental force, they pursue a renegade across the Orion Arm of the Milky Way as they investigate the mystery of the "Sund."
