Next Of Kin - Softcover
81,82 new hostile worlds discovered: 83 - and then another five propulsors blew their linings simultaneously and Scout-Officer John Leeming knew he would have to make a crash landing. Soon he was a prisoner of the Zangastans - and filled with a determination to get back to Earth just as soon as possible. It took the failure of an orthodox escape attempt to make him realise that his alien life-form captors knew precious little of human nature. So unprompted corroboration from another Terran prisoner held by the Lathians, Zangasta's senior allies, that said Lathians had the Willies was good enough proof that Leeming's Eustace could be pretty dangerous. Does this baffle you? Read on!

Book Description SOFTCOVER. "A wonderful, fun, fast yarn that hasn't aged a bit and never, never takes itself seriously."--Jack L. Chalker.

But after he crash-lands on a distant planet and becomes a prisoner of ruthless aliens, he can't just give up. This original, full-length version of one of Russell's most popular stories, "Plus X," is amusing, fast moving, and razor sharp. "Outrageous.well worth seeking out."--"David Langford." 1989. Reprint. A near fine, tight and clean copy only marked by very light shelf rubbing to the rear panel and a faint remainder line to the bottom edge. Seller Inventory # 13504816
