From their home worlds, a group of civilized planets hidden back of beyond, Space Vikings raid the shattered remnants of the Terran Federation.Lucas Trask began as a debunker of the myth that looting and murder could bring prosperity. After a personal tragedy, he reverses himself, trades his wealth for a ship, and becomes a looter and murderer himself. But that is incidental to the blood-debt he must settle. His enemy, the man who murdered his wife at the moment of marriage, is a would-be empire-builder, hazardous to the health of any planet, anywhere.
