Summary "Recruit for Andromeda" by Milton Lesser is a science fiction novel written in the late 1950s. The story revolves around Kit Temple, who gets drafted for the mysterious 'Nowhere Journey,' a flight from which no one has ever returned. As he grapples with the implications of his draft and the sacrifice it demands, he encounters other characters such as Arkalion, who hints at secrets about their fate that could be crucial to the future of Earth. The opening of the book plunges the reader directly into a world rife with political unease and uncertainty. Center City is gripped by riots as young men await the announcement of those selected for the Nowhere Journey. Kit Temple is with his fiancée, Stephanie, who is desperately worried about their future when his name is called. Their poignant farewell hints at a love that may never be rekindled, showcasing themes of duty, sacrifice, and the unknown. Meanwhile, we are introduced to a wealthy young man named Alaric Arkalion III, who is involved in his own shadowy dealings, setting up a dual narrative that intertwines personal stakes with broader consequences for humanity itself.
