About this Item

London: Burke Publishing Co., Ltd., 1959. First Edition. 12mo, 158 pp, red cloth boards in the very rare illustrated dustjacket. A near fine book with light corner bumping. Dustjacket ia About Very Good, with some creasing, two small closed tears, light rubbing. See scans. Front flap of the jacket is price clipped, but it is otherwise complete. Scotland-born and bred Angus Macvicar, who wrote successfully in several genres, is best known - within the juvenile science fiction genre - for his "Lost Planet" series, within which this title was the fourth of six. It remains one of the scarcest title for both Macvicar and UK science fiction in general. With the dustjacket, it is essentially not replaceable. The series was inexpensively produced, and the jackets, by and large, seem to have perished. A difficult find for the sci-fi collector. L13n. Seller Inventory # 001225
