THEIR WORLD WAS DEAD

-and the few survivors of Menelaus XII-14 lived out a dazed existence of shock and bitterness. But they had a dream-that one day their planet would live again.

The government of the United Galaxy didn't see it their way-the dead world was a very profitable resource for exploitation. The Menelaens had to go outside the law for help-and found it in Red Stone of the half-outlaw Free Companies, mercenaries of space warfare.

Stone was willing-but he didn't know the unthinkable secret his clients were keeping from him!

MICHAEL COLLINS, by training a chem-ist, turned to fiction after twelve years of technical and scientific writing and edit-ing. In 1968 his novel Act of Fear won the Mystery Writers of America's Edgar award as Best First Mystery Novel of the Year. "Michael Collins" is a pseudonym; under his own name and another pseudo-nym, the author, a California resident, has published many novels and short stories.”
