world that actively seeks to kill the colonists. Not a pleasant place.
The hordes of ferocious animals all come with deadly poison and a will
to kill as many humans as possible. Even the plants have teeth and claws
and toxins dripping from every surface. They fly, crawl and run for the
chance to sink something terrible into a human arm or leg. Oh, and did I
mention the 2G gravity? Pyrrus is it's name. The settlers there were
supermen... twice as strong as ordinary men and with instantaneous
reflexes. They had to be. For their business was murder...a 3 year old
Pyrrian had a loaded gun strapped to his forearm and knew how to use it
or he was a dead 3 year old. It was up to Jason dinAlt, interplanetary
gambler, to discover why Pyrrus had become so hostile during man's brief
habitation...if he could stay alive long enough to even make a start -

ideals and others with very low ones indeed. So why hasn't war occurred
in several centuries among the hundreds of planets? Has man really
changed? Not on your life it hasn't! Read how science has given man
peace but at what cost? Genre(s): Science Fiction The Misplaced Battleship Harry HARRISON (1925 - 2012) "It
might seem a little careless to lose track of something as big as a
battleship ... but interstellar space is on a different scale of
magnitude. But a misplaced battleship—in the wrong hands!—can be most
dangerous." The world class con man and thief known as the Stainless
Steel Rat (diGriz) has another very big problem to solve and this
science fiction novella by the great Harry Harrison will see if he can
solve it and perhaps four or five more like it before this fascinating
and funny tale is finished. 'Use a thief to catch a thief' sounds great
but it sometimes has unexpected results. (Summary from the book and Phil
