Description

"Is there no defence against these aliens?" Until the 'Space Warp' drive was perfected for the Space Corps dreadnoughts of United Earth, the solar system lay at the mercy of alien beings in sub-space. Elkan Niebohr, head of the Excelsior Colonization Corporation with its fleet of merchantmen, was intent on carrying out his own research using planet Orphelin and its neighbouring asteroid. When Orphelin went off the air, Commander Tom Bruce took his starship Venturer Twelve into orbit at full battle alert. Had Niebohr's plans gone awry or had alien forces struck yet again?
