About This Item
New York: Ace Books, Inc., 1965. First Printing, First Paperback Edition. . Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. Vintage Paperback, Ace F-328: A late stand-alone novel from the premier Science Fiction pulp fiction writer of the 1930s and '40s. Earth's first starship, called "Pleiades," could travel instantaneously from one point in the universe to any other point no matter how many light-years distant. It had one very large flaw -- there was no way of predicting where, in the infinity of space, it would re-appear when it left the solar system and no way of knowing how to return. Its crew of two men and two women are all Psionic Primes with mind-powers previously unknown on Earth. This is the story of how they pitted their mental powers against the dangers of the universe. Cover art by Ed Valigursky. Pictorial wrappers show reading crease, only minor surface and edge wear. Slight spine lean, lightly age-tanned pages, o/w clean, complete and unmarked. A collectable copy.
