Rustum, e Eridani II, was six parsecs away, forty-one years of travel, and barely habitable: but the only possible world yet discovered.

Exploration was a dwindling activity, which interested fewer men each generation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Poul Anderson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1606645498\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781606645499\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Aegypan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 36\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.09d","brand":"Poul Anderson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45896866660607,"sku":"9781606645499","price":11.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-burning-bridge-by-poul-poul-anderson-9781606645499","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
