For science fiction death rays, read E.E. "Doc" Smith's novels, beginning
with _Triplanetary_.

For real life death rays, come out here to New Mexico and witness tests of
the High Energy Laser (in the appropriately-named HELSTF facility,
pronounced "hell-staff") at the White Sands Missile Range. (There are also
military lasers of lower power that would definitely qualify as
death-dealers.)
