The Planet Buyer (A book in the Norstrilia series) - Cordwainer Smith
Product Information The Planet Buyer (A book in the Norstrilia series) - Cordwainer Smith The man who owned Earth. One fabulous night of frenzied manipulation had made the obscure rancher from the far planet the single richest man in history. It also made him the sole owner of Man's home planet - and a sitting duck target for every criminal in the universe. There was one way he could reach the planet he now owned, alive. But it meant he would have to die first... This is the author's first novel under the name "Cordwainer Smith" (he was also published as Paul Linebarger and Felix C. Forrest). The first part of Norstrilia, an expansion of "The Boy Who Bought Old Earth" (Galaxy, April 1964). This softcover volume was published by Pyramid Books in 1964. It has reading creases on and along the spine, a small tear at the base of the spine, general bumping to the corners and edges, a sticker on the front cover and a couple of dates written carefully in small print inside, they might be the dates the book was read.
