Synopsis: When interstellar travel is within man's grasp, but still alive with the unknown... When telepathy is harnessed by science, becomes as available as radio communication, but is still not understood... When families settle on alien worlds thriving with unimaginably bizarre life forms... There will be dangers. There will be heroes. And some of these heroes will be kids - teenagers whose initiative and daring saves lives, or brings them to startling new discoveries. Each of the new stories in this collection is told from the viewpoint of these young heroes of the future. (from the back cover of the Avon Books first edition)
