VORTEX BLASTER

'Storm' Cloud, the only man who could destroy the raging nuclear vortices that struck and killed at random.

VORTEX BLASTER

was also the name of Cloud's spaceship, an amazingly advanced arsenal of modern science, in which Cloud and his colourful crew of space castaways hunted the source of the lethal vortices, battled a criminal master-mind, developed unheard-of sciences, and made an ultimate discovery of shattering importance to the destiny of the universe.

THE VORTEX BLASTERS

team up in a thrilling space-saga of crisis and adventure in the worlds of the Lensmen - 'Doc' Smith's most enduring creation.

The Lensman series is one of the classic works of adventurous science fiction. Each of the seven titles in the series is a complete, exciting SF novel in itself, but to savour the full thrilling effect of 'Doc' Smith's masterly storytelling the addict of space adventure will want to acquire the whole Lensman sequence.

'The Lensman series is similar in its mesmeric effect to the Martian novels of Edgar Rice Burroughs . . . galaxic in scope . . . wonderfully outrageous epics' Edmund Cooper Sunday Times
