The First Appearance in Print of this Hugo Award Winning Novel, serialized throughout three Issues of this Digest-Sized magazine. Cover artwork by Frank Kelly Freas (Feb & April) & Ed Emshwiller (March). Very mild browning to paper stock, unneeded small tape reinforcement to each issue at head & heel of spine panel; otherwise a near fine set. DOUBLE STAR received the 1956 Hugo Award for Best SF Novel of the Year, Heinlein's first Hugo Award. The novel is set in a future when the Moon, Mars, Venus and Jupiter's moons have been colonized and the Solar System is governed by a parliamentary democracy under a constitutional monarchy from a capital city on the Moon. The indigenous alien race inhabiting Mars has recently been admitted to citizenship in the human-dominated solar system government.
