"A badly dated thriller about the building of the first Moon rocket: here, a scientist and a businessman conspire with various juveniles to carry out the mighty project in secrecy. Kornbluth's first solo novel, praised in its day." - Pringle, The Ultimate Guide to Science Fiction, second edition (1995), p. [363]. Runner-up for the 1953 International Fantasy Award. Hint of rubbing to cover edges, a bright, nearly fine copy. (#94443).
