Book Description
Chapter I It was shortly after noon of December 31, 1970, when the series of weird and startling events began which took me into the tiny world of an atom of gold, beyond the vanishing point, beyond the range of even the highest-powered electric-microscope. My name is George Randolph. I was, that momentous afternoon, assistant chemist for the Ajax International Dye Company, with main offices in New York City. It was twelve-twenty when the local exchange call-sorter announced Alan's connection from Quebec. "Hello, George? Look here, you've got to come up here at once. Chateau Frontenac, Quebec. Will you come?" I could see his face imaged in the little mirror on my desk; the anxiety, tenseness in his voice, was duplicated in his expression. "Well--" I began. "You must, George. Babs and I need you. See here...." He tried at first to make it sound like an invitation for a New Year's Eve holiday. But I knew it was not that. Alan and Barbara were my best friends. They were twins, eighteen years old. I felt that Alan would always be my best friend; but for Babs, my hopes, longings, went far deeper, though as yet I had never brought myself to the point of telling her so.

Book Description
Two Planets Clash for Lunar Treasure Gregg Haljan was aware that there was a certain danger in having the giant spaceship "Planetara" stop off at the moon to pick up Grantline's special cargo of moon ore. For that rare metal -- invaluable in keeping Earth's technology running -- was the target of many greedy eyes. But nevertheless he hadn't figured on the special twist the clever Martian brigands would use. So when he found both the ship and himself suddenly in their hands, he knew that there was only one way in which he could hope to save that cargo and his own secret -- that would be by turning space-pirate himself and paying the "Brigands of the Moon" back in their own interplanetary coin. * Here is a science-fiction classic, as exciting and ingenious as only a master of super-science could write.
