Acerca de este libro electrónico

In the penultimate book of Captain W.E. Johns' space adventures, the crew of the Tavona travel yet further and see yet more unbelievable sights!

First up is the planet Krona, whose seemingly youthful inhabitants can live for centuries. What is in their food that sustains them? Is this something that could help revolutionise medicine as we know it? Of course, something so valuable will always have its hunters - and not all of them are as virtuous as the Professor.

Tiger and his team will need to protect the natives of Krona, and persuade them that Earth is no threat in order to win the day!

Acerca del autor

Captain W. E. Johns (1893-1968)
A World War One pilot, Captain Johns started flying as part of the Royal Flying Corps before the RAF was even formed, and flew a number of missions into Germany before being shot down and taken as a POW in September 1918. After the war ended, he remained in the RAF in recruitment and then as a reservist before relinquishing his commission in 1931. He published his first Biggles book the following year.

The renowned flying ace Biggles is probably his most well-known character, however throughout Johns' 46-year writing career (from 1922 until his death) he wrote over 160 books, including other novels and non-fiction. His first science fiction novel, Kings of Space, was published in 1954 and introduced Captain "Tiger" Clinton to the world. A series of nine further novels followed.

Captain Johns died in 1968, at the age of 75. He wrote right up until his death.
