Description

The goal of the goal from Earth: to avoid the callous Barjarnum of Beaujolais from growing his kingdom around the Major Globe,and avoid the world from falling under this tyrantis control. Ruin causes the art to crash-land subsequently, and the children face an unbelievable 40,000-mile journey over the harmful scenery. A SF milestone. "Among the best writers the science-fiction area has ever known."--Poul Anderson.
