Bound in blue/grey cloth boards with titles present to the spine. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities (boards are stained and worn at the extremities). No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. "We'll thunder off to Io, Out in the Jovian Moons. We'll feast our eyes and seek the skies And plunder Martian ruins!" The "Spaceman's Chant" turned from a spirited to a heartbreaking refrain when Cadet Peter Hodges learned that he would never be allowed to "thunder off to Io." Bitter disappointment, to a youth whose father had been one of the first space captains, motivates this gripping tale of the future. Studded with detail of the spaceports, ships and men that handle interplanetary flight, Earthbound is the very human drama of a disillusioned cadet forced by circumstances to help plunder the very space liners he was trained to protect. ; 9.0 X 6.0 X 1.0 inches.
