Readers will remember Cargo-master-apprentice Dane Thornson and his ill-fated ship, the Solar Queen, with its motley crew, from Sargasso of Space. Now the Solar Queen is on the look out for new business, and buys the right to trade on Sargol, a planet rich in exotic gems and valuable oils, inhabited by a sly feline people. But their most ruthless competitor, Inter-Solar, has arrived there before them. The Solar Queen's try to play fair, but it is only after take-off that the space-trader's most desperate hours begin. The crew are struck down by a deadly, unknown disease; as a "Plague Ship" they are not permitted to land anywhere, and other ships have orders that they are to be destroyed on sight. With this thrilling space story, Andre Norton justifies her position as one of the top writers of science fiction for young people. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.
