Here are three more stories from the pioneers of the early days of pulp science fiction in this final volume of the Galaxy Trilogy series.
In “Across Time,” unidentified flying objects are closing in fast, but Captain Zachary Halleck doesn’t finalize his move to protect the secret Air Force research station. Why?
In “Mission to a Star,” human-like aliens land on Earth and claim that they come in peace, asking only for complete freedom and Earth’s friendship, trust, and understanding for as long as they choose to remain.
In “The Rim of Space,” from the first book of the Rim World series, the Rim Runners explore desolate planets inhabited by intelligent amphibians, tea-loving lizards, humanoids, and a preindustrial civilization.

• CONTROL IT. The audio player offers multi-speed fast forward/reverse, jump ahead/back, chapter skip, volume control, plus a one-touch chapter browser. The ‘scrub’ bar let’s you point anywhere inside a chapter with just a tap, and now you can shake‘n’pause to temporarily halt playback instantly without looking at the screen.
