Two was that these men and women were facing the greatest danger of their existence from a new outburst of the inhuman fiends who had once tyrannized Astra. Three was that the natives who were buying Kurbi's science know-how were those very fiends--and their intentions were implacably deadly for all humans, whether Earth born or "Star Born." "Nobody today is telling better stories of straight-forward interstellar adventure." --"New York Herald-Tribune" |
