The premise, in the publisher's words
Forty years ago, Prof. K.K. Renegade predicted that an asteroid was rocketing toward Earth. No one believed him . . . then. But time, and a rapidly approaching piece of space rock the size of Louisiana, would change all that. Realizing that the only man who could avert the asteroid disaster was the same man who predicted it, the really important people of Earth decided to contact Prof. Renegade for help. But the Professor had become a recluse (no one likes his "Earth Is Doomed!" theory poo-pooed). The question now: where was Prof. Renegade . . . and could he be found in time!?!?
