- Summary
-
1500 years in the future Earth, recovering from a nuclear holocaust, is ruled by the empire of Toromon, and is engaged in a bizarre interstellar war in which soldiers are wired into a computer and teleported to battle. The teleportation, however, is false: the soldiers experience battle and survivors remember the deaths of their comrades, but in fact this is computer generated. All remain in their "coffins" and the dead are incinerated.
