The Game of Stars and Comets
 Danger in the Stars!
The birth of a hero is never easy. Clumsy as an elephant in high heels, he is nothing like his legendary scout father.
But inside that bull-moose-of-a-body lies the heart of a hero whose moment has arrived! Next, a boy survives alien invasion - but must learn to think and act like his reptilian enemy to exact retribution for slaughter! These and two other tales of coming-of-age-through-peril from the writer who invented the genre. Includes The X Factor, Voorloper, The Eye of the Monster, and The Sioux Spaceman—all set in Norton's "Council/Confederation" universe!
"The Grande Dame of science fiction."
—Time on SF legend, Andre Norton.
