New York: Ace Books, Inc., 1965. First Printing, First Paperback Edition. . Mass Market Paperback. Very Good. Vintage Paperback, Ace F-328: A late stand-alone novel from the premier Science Fiction pulp fiction writer of the 1930s and '40s. Earth's first starship, called "Pleiades," could travel instantaneously from one point in the universe to any other point no matter how many light-years distant. It had one very large flaw -- there was no way of predicting where, in the infinity of space, it would re-appear when it left the solar system and no way of knowing how to return. Its crew of two men and two women are all Psionic Primes with mind-powers previously unknown on Earth. This is the story of how they pitted their mental powers against the dangers of the universe. Cover art by Ed Valigursky. Pictorial wrappers show reading crease, only minor surface and edge wear. Slight spine lean, lightly age-tanned pages, o/w clean, complete and unmarked. A collectable copy.

New York: The MacMillan Company, 1957. First Edition, Second Printing. . Hardcover. Very Good/Good. One of this mid-20th-century, military-thriller writer's best novels is this sea captain's battle with a non-human enemy. Captain Harkness' British merchant vessel flounders in tremendous seas driven by gale force winds as he struggles desperately to keep it aloat until help can arrive. The careful balance Trevor maintains between crew and passengers' personal dramas and the drama of the ship fighting the sea makes for a memorable thriller notable for lack of gunfire and warfare. Boards are slightly worn along edges, corners and at spine ends; front end page shows "shadow" of sticker since removed from dj flap, and top edge of text is foxed, o/w clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows several small tears and creases with considerable wear at edges and corners, though the jacket painting by Francis Flint, the design and lettering are not…
