Karnock intends to have a brutish noble named Ulgar marry King Stephan's daughter, Princess Valya. The marriage is intended to permit Karnock to ascend the throne of Sirion. When King Stephan hears of Karnock's intention to usurp the throne from him, he sends Space Admiral Jon Lasim to investigate matters. Jon soon runs afoul of Karnock, who places a bounty on his head. Lasim also falls in love with Valya. The Space Admiral is hunted for a time by Karnock's soldiers. Jon defeats Karnock, and King Stephan returns to rule Sirion.
