Keith Laumer, Rosel George Brown · 1966 · Novel
A thundering "space opera" in the old-fashioned tradition of Science Fiction: redolent with people who vault across galactic distances, villainous engines of destruction, and a universe populated by humans, humanoids, monsters-tailed, scaled, and properly tentacled. The story begins in the year 13,000 A.D. The central character is Roan, a pure-strain human, who, as a boy, is kidnapped by the owner of a freak show and sent on a "summer stock" tour by means of spaceship. This weird interplanetary circus troupe is suddenly pirated by another vessel.
