"Mars was no paradise, but to Dr. Tony Hellman it meant a second chance for man-and to Hugo Brenner it meant a world to plunder. Tony was the leading member of Sun Lake Colony, a band of frontier-extending Earth people-intrepid space pioneers. Brenner was the planet's most powerful magnate, and operator whose vast wealth was based on Earthmen's tragic addiction to the vicious drug, marcaine. When Brenner accused the Sun Lakers of stealing a hundred kilograms of the Martian drug, the colony was threatened with extermination unless the thief was found and the marcaine returned. Tony and his fellow colonists saw their second chance fading. Brenner's success would mean the end of their better world."; 16mo - over 5¾" - 6¾" tall.

Spine a bit rolled with some creasing and scuffing along edges. Binding intact but looks to be a bit fragile. Some edge wear and rubbing, long but light crease across upper corner of cover. Pages tanned but text is clean and unmaked. A decent copy. Hal Clement was a master at inventing alien races and then telling a tale from their viewpoint, starting with his classic novel Mission of Gravity. Here, as elsewhere, we come to find that humans are the aliens in his stories. "After his ship crashed, Nils Kurger had spent weeks wandering across the face of the planet . . . suffering from the blistering heat, the searing cold of an alien climate. Now he had found a fellow wanderer. And it was not human. "Nils had no way of knowing how helpless or how dangerous the alien might be. It looked helpless, in fact it looked just as out of place on this planet as Nils was himself, but it also looked like nothing Nils had ever seen before. Whatever it was, there was just a chance that together they might stay alive. "Through months Nils and the creature marched together, shared adventure and escape - and grew to know each other. Then Nils made a disturbing discovery. "This creature, this thing called Dar, possessed a mind more powerful than his own . . . a mind totally retentive of facts, interpretation, analysis . . . a mind capable of feelings and desires fully as keen as Nils's own. And to this mind, Nils Kruger was the alien. "; 6¾" - 7¾" Tall.
