When both groups are struck by a mysterious ray that puts the Almorans to sleep, the humans use quick thinking and deception to outwit the enemy ship’s crew. The Almorans, impressed by their courage, grant the humans lasting memories of the journey but seal their minds against speaking of it—leaving the truth buried in silence. Bob Brown’s striking cover captures the alien tension, perfectly framing the issue’s blend of wonder and suspense.
