Synopsis ~
The ten great stories in this exciting new anthology will take the reader on giddy adventures through space, dramatizing the resourcefulness and courage of the individuals who will pioneer the star lanes in centuries to come.
They will delight all science-fiction fans with their portrayals of the commander of a space freighter, a frontier guard on duty on a lonely asteroid, a trader who must make peace between human and non-human customers, an ambitious marine doomed to a forgotten post in a too-far-flung galactic empire, and others who will play their parts before man in the universe passes into history.
As man's rule spreads from planet to planet, from solar system to solar system across the wide sky, explorers, space officers, pioneers, guardsmen, marines, traders, heralds and doctors may note that in this book some of today's greatest science-fiction writers allowed youngsters a peek into their not-too-distant future.
