Sci-Fi Space Opera Paperback by an Underrated Female Author


Secrets Of the Lost Age

by Andre Norton

Ace Books, 1959, reprint

mass market paperback

The Constellation of the Wolf was an area of the galaxy few spacemen wanted to visit for its sparse worlds were home only to the outcasts of the civilized worlds. But now it had been learned that there was one among its runaway refugees who was more than just a misfit - one who was a definite danger to all humanity. 

The hunt was on for the desperate young man called Joktar - for if he was what they said he was, he could contaminate the universe!

Only Joktar didn't believe it - and he rallied a world of courageous outlaws to defend him.
