E. E. 'Doc' Smith — Galactic Patrol

Panther Books 1975 Paperback, 255pp. The space pirates of Boskone raided at will, menacing the whole structure of intersteller civilization. Master-mindde by a super-scientist, their conquering fleets outgunned even the mighty space cruisers of the Galactic Patrol. When Lensman Kim Kimmison of the Patrol discovered the secret Boskonian base, it was invulnerable to outside attack. But where a battle-fleet would meet insuperable resistence, a single infiltraor might penetrate the Boskonian defences - if he had the guts to take on million-to-one odds. Kinnison had the guts enough to take on the odds - even with future of the civilization riding on his shoulders. Galactic Patrol is the third novel in the epic seven-volume Lensman series, a sage of galactic adventure in the great tradition of adventurous science fiction. Each Lensman book is a complete, exciting novel in itself - watch out for each one as it appears in Panther Science Fiction. Owner's Name inside. (ISBN: 0586038280). Fair.
