Zetor/Century...I love the name...it's so off-planet.

Funny you should mention that.

It is the eighth book of the Lensman Series by E. E. "Doc" Smith -
"Zetor Century".

Gharlane of Eddore figures prominently in this one by inventing the
Zetor which is intended to destroy Civilization in a Century.

Aha...and Zetor, of course, is a metaphor for the neoconservatives...

No - Zetor would be the metaphor for nimrods who refuse to use their
intellectual prowess to critically analyze political viewpoints and
instead, blindly follow without questioning their own leadership. :)

Plus, I made it up. :)

Take care.
