This is a 2001 omnibus edition of two early Norton novels: Star Guard (1955) and Star Rangers (1953). Both offer intrigue and space peril, with controlled prose (as opposed to Norton's more mannered efforts). This is the Andre Norton I love.

My #BookSpin and #DoubleSpin reads for June are a couple of vintage reads: 1950's military-sf adventure and 1970's cozy mystery. I'm already about halfway through the first, and looking forward to the other.

Thanks @TheAromaofBooks !

TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! I've really enjoyed a lot of Elizabeth Peters's mysteries, although I haven't read the Jacqueline Kirby ones yet!! 10mo
TheSpineView Love Norton! I thought that was a great book but it has been years since I read it. 10mo
swynn @TheAromaofBooks This is my first Peters mystery, and I'm looking forward to it! 10mo
swynn @TheSpineView I didn't ever connect with Norton when I was younger, so it's only recently that I've started to appreciate her work. This is one of the books I'd give my younger self and say, "Try this one, kid." 10mo
