Rebellious Stars
by Issac Asimov
(my conversion)“The
Earth had been made hopelessly radioactive and useless by atomic warfare, but
young Biron Farrill, a student in the University of Earth, nevertheless found
himself involved in a struggle that was worse because of the mystery in it, His
father, on another planet, had been murdered and the young man himself was
marked for violent death.
“The
only certainty was that his pursuers, whose identities were unknown to him,
were agents of would-be conquerors of everything and everybody in the galaxy.
But young Farrill had to find out why he and his father had been marked for
destruction. How he fought and what he found out while he even went into the
blackness of a nebula to save himself make a suspenseful story.
“This is
a Grade A item in the science-fiction category.”
