It was a beautiful planet . . . and a trap for the unwary.\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eHere was a wide-open world for any venture a man might scheme. The planet attracted unwary travelers, hardened space-sailors, and merchant buccaneers--a teeming, constantly shifting horde that provideda comfortable income for certain quick-witted fellows like Flinx and his pet mini-dragon, Pip.
