Calhoun is an Interstellar Medical Serviceman, and he's needed on Dara. Trouble is: Dara is forbidden. Taboo. And breaking quarantine will make Calhoun a presumed plague-carrier and subject to being shot on sight by anyone from Weald. But hey! If he did the smart thing, we wouldn't have a story! But why are men from Dara shooting at him?

Murray Leinster again takes us on a fairly realistic flight of improbability. A thoroughly enjoyable tale is rendered flawlessly by Mark F. Smith, with very good audio quality, and his singular sense of timing and intonation. I could only have enjoyed it twice as much, if it had been twice as long. Well done, and certainly worth listening to.

Good space adventure but it ends weakly as many of the stories from that period do. The hero doesn't get the girl in the end because that might not be proper and young men might not understand about girls. The book ignores the fact that those young men already do. Still... it's accurate for it's time.

A most enjoyable book. Fast paced and light hearted. One of the best I have heard in quite a while.
