Book description
Meet David Falkayn, sharpest young trader in the Polesotechnic League
and susceptible only to the lithe curves of unwary space-girls. In three
ingenious, fast-paced tales of interplanetary adventure and intrigue,
Falkayn shows himself equally handy with his wits and a blaster. See him
untangle alien taboos, outwit alien invasions, manoeuvre adroitly
through alien revolutions - and then twist everything up again for his
own crafty purposes Poul Anderson (1926-2001) was born in Pennsylvania
