One Against the Moon and The Secret of the Ninth Planet
ONE AGAINST THE MOON AND THE SECRET OF THE NINTH PLANET includes two complete scifi novels by Golden Age science fiction writer Donald A. Wollheim. In ONE AGAINST THE MOON, a young man orphaned by World War II, Robin Carew, sets out to join America's young space program. He eventually finds himself on the way to the moon, a place more fantastic than he ever dreamed.
In the second novel, THE SECRET OF THE NINTH PLANET, on the day that the theft of the solar system's light begins, Burl Denning is with an archaeological expedition in the Andes, only a few miles from the source of the "disturbance." Within hours the United States Air Force has ordered the expedition to investigate the strange phenomenon that is causing a dimness and a drop in temperature throughout the world. This is the start of a fantastic adventure that eventually takes Burl, a high-school senior, on the first circumnavigation of the solar system. On planet after planet, he and the crew of the Magellan, a gleaming, powerful, and virtually untested spaceship, discover the weird trappings of a brilliantly-designed Sun-tap station. Each planetfall brings unexpected hazards, as the ship draws closer and closer to solving the mystery of the theft.
