It is the first book in her Solar Queen Series. Other novels in this series include Plague Ship, Voodoo Planet, and Postmarked the stars. Ace's summary reads as follows "WORLDS FOR SALE!" That was the startling cry that electrified Dane Thorson of the space-trader Solar Queen. It was his first trip and the cosmic auction was taking place at an isolated port of call, far out in the Milky Way. Who'll buy this newly discovered planet? The data on it sealed-you may be getting a radioactive desert, you may be buying a fabulous empire, or you may be stuck with an untracked unconquerable jungle. And Dane and his fellow spacemen took the risk. They bought a planet, sight unseen, whose ominous name was . . . Limbol The story of Thorson's trip to Limbo, and the amazing adventures that befell him on that SARGASSO OF SPACE, is a real thriller of a space novel by the author of STAR GUARD, THE STARS ARE OURS, and many others.
