Zustand: GOOD. Paperback original - first US printing. A book which asks the questions "Suppose you could extend your life to 300 healthy, active years with no infirmities of age? What would this secret be worth? What would you do to protect it?" One reviewer commented that "what Wyndham does here is think things through in what was, for the time, a rather surprising way: he looks at it from the feminist angle." (Guardian) One of the scientists behind this discovery was a woman, the granddaughter of a suffragist, and this novel explores how such a discovery will affect women's lives, and their expectations of life - and the reaction against women being empowered.

Paperback. Zustand: Used; Good. The ?outward urge? was a factor in the Troon inheritance. Successive generations of Troons, looking up at the stars, heard the siren voices that called them out into Space. And, as the frontier of Space receded, there was usually one Troon, if not more, out there, helping to push them back. The four exciting episodes related here deal with the parts they played in the building of the Space Station, the occupation of the moon, the first landing on Mars, and the trouble about Venus. John Wyndham, author of The Day of the Triffids, stays strictly on the tram-lines of future possibility in this book, which he has written in collaboration with Lucas Parkes as technical adviser. In an age in which what goes up need not necessarily come down, the likely adventures of the Conquistadors of Space are every bit as exciting as any world menaced by triffids.
