A David Foster Starman adventure: young space cadets face danger and mystery when an asteroid breaks loose from its course, in a rousing tale for the modern reader who loves classic juvenile SF.

Michael D. Cooper's 2004 novel is a wholesome juvenile space opera in the classic 1950s tradition. Fast, clean, nostalgic. Read it for a loving modern homage to the golden-age boys' space adventure, a young hero, a runaway asteroid, and honest thrills, from the fan-beloved Starman series.
