After two hundred earth citizens are fatally poisoned by produce from Mars, David “Lucky” Starr, Space Ranger, is sent undercover to investigate!
David Starr, Space Ranger is the first book in the Lucky Starr series written by the legendary Isaac Asimov, author of I, Robot, Foundation, and the Galactic Empire series.
David reached for the sick man, lifting him as though he were a rag doll. Artificial respiration was useless. The Space Ranger had no illusion as to the possibility of recovery. He knew the symptoms—there had been many such cases lately—the sudden flushing, the loss of voice and breath, the hopeless minute’s fight for life, and then, the end.
He turned to the trembling restaurant manager and identified himself. “My name is David Starr. I am a member of the Council of Science. What was the dead man eating before he collapsed?”
“Stewed marplums,” the manager replied, wringing his hands in anguish. “Nothing like this has ever happened here before …”
“Just the same you had better eliminate marplums from the menu,” David said.
Extraterrestrial delicacies had laid claim to yet another victim!

Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. Reissued after seventy-five years out of print--and in hardcover for the first time in a generation--David Starr, Space Ranger is the first book in the Lucky Starr series written by the legendary Isaac Asimov, author of Foundation, the Galactic Empire series, and I, Robot. The Lucky Starr series was originally published under the pseudonym Paul French.Conway could remember the day, the exact minute, when the news had reached Science Tower. Patrol ships had shot out into space, tracing the pirates; they attacked the asteroid lairs in a fury that was completely unprecedented. Whether they caught the particular villains who had gutted the Venus-bound ship none could ever say, but the pirate power had been broken from that year on.And the patrol ships found something else: a tiny lifeboat winding a precarious orbit between Venus and Earth, radiating its coldly automatic radio calls for help. Only a child was inside. A frightened, lonely four-year-old, who did not speak for hours except to say stoutly, "Mother said I wasn't to cry."It was David Starr.
