The fifth in the series of fabulous novels inspired by the famous comic strip Flash Gordon.

Victimized by a psychic teenage prankster, Flash Gordon, Dale Arden, and Dr. Zarkov find themselves instantly transported to the planet of Mongo, where Flash is captured and drugged by the ravishing witch Queen Azura and her evil cohort - none other than Ming the Merchiless, Jr! But Zarkov and Dale escape to Arboria, and enlist the aid of Prince Barin, who, by use of a brilliant ruse, sets in motion a series of violent encounters and hair's breadth escapes that place Flash's life in imminent peril.
