Beschreibung
Interior is as new. No marks. No creases. Hardcover has yellow cloth boards with blue lettering in a good DJ. DJ, although holding together, has numerous chips and minor tears around the edges. Shows a solar system view on front and rocket ship on back by artist Jean Morton. For a profit -- and adventure -- Barlennan would sail thousands of miles across uncharted waters, into regions where gravity itself played strange tricks. He would dare the perils of strange tribes and stranger creatures -- even dicker with those strange aliens from beyond the skies, though the concept of another world was unknown to the inhabitants of the disk-shaped planet of Mesklin. But in spite of the incredible technology of the strangers and without regard for their enormous size, Barlennan had the notion of turning the deal to an unsuspected advantage for himself . . . all in all a considerable enterprise for a being very much resembling a fifteen-inch caterpillar! Runner up for 1955 International Fantasy Award. "Hal Clement" was a pseudonym for Harry Stubbs. Listed in Pringle's " Science Fiction: The 100 Best Novels," as #15. Copyrights 1953, 1954.
