Publisher's Synopsis
THREE AGAINST THE STARS
A sky pirate armed with superior weapons of his own invention . . .
First contact with an alien race dangerous enough to threaten the safety of two planets . . .
The arrival of an unseen dark sun whose attendant marauders aimed at the very end of civilization in this Solar System . . .
These were the three challenges that tested the skill and minds of the brilliant team of scientist-astronauts Arcot, Wade, and Morey. Their initial adventures are a classic of science-fiction which first brought the name of their author, John W. Campbell, into prominence as a master of the inventive imagination.
