Le vie della frontiera

John Grimes: Survey Service #1

by A. Bertram Chandler, Beata della Frattina (translator)

I mondi di frontiera sono quelli all'estremo limite della Galassia ed è di li che viene la bionda commissaria di bordo del mercantile interstellare Delta Orionis. L'aspirante John Grimes invece - ufficiale di prima nomina nel Corpo di Sorveglianza Spaziale arriva dritto dall'Accademia e non è mai stato più lontano di Saturno. Per lui le vie della frontiera cominceranno tra le braccia della piccante commissaria. Poi risuonerà la sirena d'allarme.
