It began when explorers on the Moon found a space suit containing a human skeleton older than the human race. Then a starship manned by the giant humanoids of Thuria arrived, bringing both the answer to mankind's origins, and also great danger, as Earth was now caught in a struggle between the giants benevolent empire and another offshoot of the human race who regarded the Earth as rightfully theirs. Earth thought they had won the battle, and the future now looked bright, as trade and knowledge flowed back and forth between Earth and Thuria. Then Dr. Victor Hunt received a phone call - and the face - in the phone's video screen was another version of himself, calling from a parallel world. That was the first step in bridging the gap between the parallel universes of the "multiverse." Unfortunately, it also meant that enemies who had been decisively defeated in one universe were still alive and dangerous in another, and could arrive in force at any time. And the possibility soon became a frightening reality...
When they found the corpse in a grave on the Moon, wearing a spacesuit of unfamiliar design, his identity was a complete mystery. Analysis showed that the deceased was 50,000 years old - meaning that he had somehow died on the Moon before the human race even existed. On another moon, Jupiter's Ganymede, another mystery was found: a wrecked spaceship, which had been there for millennia, and was obviously designed for beings larger than the humans of Earth. The mystery seemed insoluble until another ship, manned by the same humanoid giants arrived, and were very surprised to find humans inhabiting their Solar System.
