"Dr. James Owen Mega, respected engineering professor turned sci-fi superstar 'Jay Omega,' and Dr. Marion Farley, respected English professor and self-confessed sci-fi fanatic (and Mega's significant other) , are on their way to a most unusual science fiction convention: the reunion of the Lanthanides - a group of fans from the 1950s who are gathering to open a time capsule they buried over thirty years ago.
" Now, in 1990, that time capsule is vitally important, for its real treasure is a collection of unpublished, never-before-seen short stories written by the then unknown Lanthanides, some of whom have gone on to become legends of the genre, while others languis in obscurity. The reunion also serves as a memorial to the late and not-so-lamented Lanthanide Pat Malone. That is, until Malone shows up with some very irreverent memories of the glorious past. With the love of scandal and the lack of diplomacy that were his trademarks, Malone reels off outrageous tales of times gone by, and disputes the authorship of certian works. Is the really Pat Malone Soon, the question become was he really Pat Malone, when the interloper is found murdered. Then it's up to Jay and Marion to discover the true identity of the dead man, and what secret the Lanthanides would kill to protect. "; Signed by Author
