Summary "Flame-Jewel of the Ancients" by Edwin L. Graber is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story unfolds in a distant future where powerful interstellar empires clash, centering on the mysterious and powerful jewel that could change the balance of power in the galaxy. The main character, Captain Glayne of the Stellar Guardians, faces a dire situation involving the formidable Delban Empire and their new weapons that threaten the Terran Combine. The opening of the novel introduces a high-stakes battle in the vastness of space, highlighting the immense power possessed by the Delbans through their unique technology. Captain Glayne, initially comfortable and tactically poised in his ship alongside his fellow pilots, soon discovers the shocking resilience of a Delban cruiser. As he witnesses a devastating attack, the narrative shifts to a council where Glayne must confront the impending threat of war against the Delbans, leading him to a moral crossroads where he grapples with loyalty, treachery, and the potential consequences of his actions. As the plot unfolds, complex schemes and espionage intertwine with themes of survival and betrayal, setting the stage for a thrilling exploration of conflict and ambition in a richly imagined galactic setting.
