The Earth Dies

Springers on the Earth! Topides attacked by Terrans! That's what the Springers & Topides think is happening but in actuality it's Springers vs. Topides and the battleground, due to an incredibly clever ploy on the part of the Peacelord, is not our native Terra. The fighting between two alien races is taking place on the 3d planet of the red sun Betelgeuse, a primeval jungle world where the Topides have established a colonial empire base. With the security of Earth at stake, Pucky plays a vital part in this deceptive delaying action whose motivation is to buy Earth the vital period of time we need in order to become an interstellar power. If Perry Rhodan's plan is successful, the Earth lives. If not- THE EARTH DIES
