Excerpt: ...that it's hard to tell what's what, " Scotty added. "But it certainly looked like a cannon muzzle." "From what we saw, I suspect that the portion above the sand is the stern, probably the stern super-structure. If the timbers haven't completely rotted away, ripping off the top should expose the stern cabins." "That seems reasonable, " Tony agreed. "At any rate, it's a good basis for operation. Rick, if you'll look in my kit, you wi...

Excerpt: ...Brant said softly. "I'm beginning to see." Rick wasn't. "But what is it?" he asked. "The most valuable kind of ground in the world, " Riddle said. "So far as anyone knew up to now, such pipes have occurred only in Africa. The one I saw was at Kimberley. The name came from there. This is kimberlite."

The jeep had topped a gentle rise. Below lay a small, dry lake bed. At one edge of the dry lake, nestled in low ...

Excerpt: ...while the butt of Scotty's rifle slammed into bodies and heads. The Moros turned with one accord and went over the side! Zircon yelled, "Another boat back here!" But Rick and Scotty had troubles of their own. Moros were pouring onto the deck from the bow, where another vinta had tied up to the anchor rope. They ran to meet the new attack, and were astonished to see the pirates go into the same screaming dance. Then they were fighti...

Excerpt: ...attachment to this object. I merely want it. Now, my time is short. I was fortunate to find the porter gone, but he will doubtless return. The cat, my young friend, and quickly!" Scotty moved from the bathroom on silent, bare feet, and even as his pal moved, Rick saw the object in his hand. It was a nail file. Scotty stepped close and his hand moved. The stranger stiffened. "That's a knife in your back, " Scotty said. "Drop the gun...

Foster, Lieutenant, R.I.P., " blared the voice horn, and five minutes later Rip Foster was off into space on an assignment more exciting than any he had ever imagined. He could hardly believe his ears. Could a green young Planeteer, just through his training, possibly carry out orders like these? Sunny space, what a trick it would be! From the moment Rip boards the space ship "Scorpius" there is a thrill a minute. He and his nine daring Plane...
