Description

In the glittering corridors of the Planet Patrol, a new crisis looms. The recently appointed Senator Iris Chanler—celebrated beauty, wealthy heiress, and self‑professed fan of outlaw telecasts—has threatened to slash the Patrol’s funding, stirring unease among its weary officers. Meanwhile, the notorious space pirate Jeff Thorne, known across the Martian wastes as the Derelict, plots to bring the glittering band of raiders to justice. Their paths converge amid sarcastic generals, polished boots, and a galaxy that seems to cheer the very criminals it condemns.

The opening act pits the idealistic, underfunded Patrol against charismatic lawbreakers whose daring deeds are broadcast for hungry crowds. As political intrigue blends with high‑octane chases through asteroid lanes, listeners are drawn into a world where medals gleam, betrayals simmer, and every decision could tip the balance between order and chaos. Expect crisp, fast‑paced dialogue and classic pulp flavor that makes the stakes feel both personal and galactic.

W. J. (William J.) Matthews

A hard-to-pin-down pulp-era writer, this author is remembered today for brisk, imaginative science fiction adventures that found new life through Project Gutenberg. The surviving record is sparse, which gives the work an added air of mystery.
