Publisher's Synopsis
This, the third book in the Tom Corbett series by "Carey Rockwell" (whoever he was in real life) is, like all of the Tom Corbett books, something special. It's another tale of the three young men who serve in the Solar Guard as Space Cadets. And this tale of the cadets' adventures is a story you've got to love, too. We mean, Space Pirates! Space Pirates! How cool can you get? There's an Energy Lock Formula that allows the Space Pirates (shiver me space-timbers, matey!) to rob spaceships at will. The Polaris crew must go underground to find the stolen formula...! Carey Rockwell was the pseudonym used by Grosset & Dunlap. It's unknown who actually wrote the books attributed to Rockwell or even if the Tom Corbett book we're written by several authors. It is interesting to note, however, that while much of the content was original, a number of scenes and plot points were taken from the television series of the same name.
