with containing “the most terrifying pages in any SF novel I have ever read.”
A monstrous apparatus has been found on the surface of the moon.

The ideal candidate won’t go insane even as he feels the end approaching. Al Barker has already stared into the face of death; he can handle it again. But he won’t merely endure the trauma of dying. Barker will die over and over—even as his human qualities are preserved on Earth.
