{"product_id":"mirage-for-planet-x-lester-del-rey-9781612872094","title":"Mirage for Planet X \u0026 Police Your Planet","description":"Armchair Fiction presents extra large editions of classic science fiction double novels. The first novel is \"Mirage for Planet X\" by well-known science fiction author, Stanley Mullen. It's interplanetary intrigue at its best. Torry had come to Mars looking for a man named Roper. They had been partners once-until Torry had found out what kind of man his partner really was. So with revenge and more on his mind, Torry set out for a public auction, an auction that featured two pieces of merchandise that would soon bring the worst elements of the Solar System into a showdown of frenzied bidding. The prize was sealed in two crates, its contents unknown. Yet scavengers from a dozen barbaric Moons; adventurers from nameless, semi-explored asteroids, arrived for the deathless auction...to bid on Roper's mysterious crates, the contents of which held the promise of a massive interplanetary confidence job, or the key to salvation for a dying race of people. The second novel is \"Police Your Planet\" by heralded sci-fi author and editor, Lester del Rey. His ticket to Mars was stamped: \"One-way.\" \"Police Your Planet\" is a good old-fashioned science fiction adventure yarn. Yet it also has all the earmarks of a gritty hard-boiled cop novel. It's the story of Bruce Gordon, a man sent to Mars with a one-way ticket. A man with a controversial past who faces danger and corruption in the far-off city of Marsport, Gordon wasn't crazy about the town, which was basically a central city covered by gigantic air dome surrounded by a massive slum. Gordon soon found himself tangled in a web of intrigue, caught in the middle between two warring factions, both riddled in corruption. He is soon attacked with fists, knives, clubs, and guns (nope, not ray-guns-these things fire bullets ) But the key for Bruce Gordon was finding a way to bring both sides to their knees without losing his life\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lester Del Rey, Stanley Mullen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1612872093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781612872094\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Armchair Fiction \u0026amp; Music\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.99h x 5.24w x 0.50d","brand":"Lester Del Rey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44860457255167,"sku":"9781612872094","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d4f8c434-753a-458b-b3f9-c0b0fd0af29c.jpg?v=1709136129","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/mirage-for-planet-x-lester-del-rey-9781612872094","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
