This is one in a long line of exciting space stories featuring Tom Corbett, Space Cadet! This is the 5th book in the popular and innovative space series ever. This was the original and came along before the special effects laced new stuff. Imagine, the author even had a technical advisor, which was huge for that time. These books offer easy to follow adventures of Tom Corbett, Space Cadet. In this book he travels to Venus and faces unknown dangers and exciting adventures. The books were the source of many imaginations during their time and are still relevant. The books are great for young readers as they are clean and easy to understand.
Tom Corbett was one of the first space series, and it even came before Star Trek and other space odysseys. It was written in a simpler time so many of the ideas may seem silly but let your mind go and enjoy the ride in Tom’s spaceship. The books are part of a great series and each one is a great as the previous one. It lacks the advanced technical mumbo jumbo of other series but the characters are well developed and the storylines fun and exciting. A great read and a worthy pick.
