The Game of Stars and Comets

De: Andre Norton

Narrado por: L.J. Ganser

Danger in the stars!

The birth of a hero is never easy. Clumsy as an elephant in high heels, he is nothing like his legendary scout father.

But inside that bull-moose-of-a-body lies the heart of a hero whose moment has arrived! Next, a boy survives alien invasion - but must learn to think and act like his reptilian enemy to exact retribution for slaughter.

These and two other tales of coming-of-age-through-peril from the writer who invented the genre, Andre Norton. Includes "The X Factor," "Voorloper", "The Eye of the Monster", and "The Sioux Spaceman" - all set in Norton's Council/Confederation universe.

Memories

Brings back memories of reading these books as a teenager. Thanks for doing that for me.

Great story telling

12 hours of heaven, I enjoyed every minute of it, and he is such a fantastic writer, and Weaver with tales and spells. 

Mysterious cities on alien worlds

If you want a classic-styled adventure tale that leads you through varied landscapes to explore, then these are great stories for that.

Far from her best

I grew up reading many of André Nortons works which I enjoyed in the 60s and 70s. Many I still do. These are not among her best. The reader was respectable the material was not her best.
