Wanderer of Infinity by Harl Vincent
"Wanderer of Infinity" by Harl Vincent is a science fiction novel written in the early 20th century. It explores themes of dimension, the unknown, and the consequences of scientific exploration. The story follows Bert Redmond, who receives a desperate call from Joan Parker to help her brother, Tom, a scientist involved in dangerous experiments with infradimensional space. The narrative begins with Bert's journey to a decrepit estate, where he reunites with Joanand learns about Tom's troubling experiments. As the tale unfolds, Tom’s apparatus inadvertently opens a connection to another dimension inhabited by the sinister Bardeks, leading to the kidnapping of both Joan and Tom. Bert is then whisked away by the enigmatic Wanderer, who guides him through the fifth dimension and reveals the tragic history of his own civilization's demise due to similar scientific arrogance. The climax centers around Bert’s desperate attempt to save his friends from the Bardeks, resulting in a sacrificial act by Tom, which ultimately prevents a catastrophe on Earth. Through rich descriptive passages and a blend of science fiction concepts, Vincent crafts a compelling tale that delves into the interplay between human ambition and cosmic consequences.
