by Stanley Salmons (Author)
Saturn Run is the first book in THE PLANETARY TRILOGY. It is the 22nd century. There are colonies on the Moon and Mars, but the gap between rich and poor is wider than ever, and interplanetary crime syndicates operate behind legitimate fronts. Dan Larssen escapes a dirt-poor farming background to train at Space Fleet Academy. His life is full of promise - until it enters a downward spiral from which there seems to be no escape. In desperation he volunteers for a solo mission, taking a secret cargo a thousand million miles across space to a station orbiting Saturn. But Dan has an implacable enemy, and he is up against much more than he knows... This thriller is set in the future but it's based on credible science. Although it can stand alone, you'll want to follow Dan Larsson through Parts 2 and 3 of the saga
