Остался только "Хозяин астероида" — народ, у кого есть эта книга? Сфотографируйте мне первые пять страниц — и в личку их скиньте — тогда мы сможем определить, что это такое.

цитата Dark Andrew

Прочитал ебук про то, как Гарри Экс и Флетчер меняли продукты у инопланетян на умирающей планете. Называлась повесть Fugitive of the Stars   [= Звёздные скитальцы] . А в аннотации библиографии говорится совсем о другом. Где правда? И что я прочитал?

Вы прочитали "Межзвездных старателей" = Universe Wreckers

цитата Dark Andrew

Вы прочитали "Межзвездных старателей" = Universe Wreckers

В библиографии указано, что это роман. А я читал что-то вроде повести. Хотя объем произведения соотносим с рассказом. Может это другое произведение?

THE TWO THOUSAND CENTURIES

The Era of Interplanetary Exploration and Colonization--1971-2011.
The Era of Interplanetary Frontiers--2011-2247.
The Era of Interplanetary Secession--2247-2621.
The Era of Interstellar Exploration--2300-2621.
The Era of Interstellar Colonization--2621-62,339.
The Era of the Federation and United Worlds--62,339-129,999.
The Era of the Star Kings--130,000-202,115.

The history of two hundred thousand years showed how the entire structure of galactic civilization was based upon the epochal discovery of sub-spectrum rays.
The era of space-travel had really dawned in 1945 and '46, with the first release of atomic energy and the discovery that radar could function efficiently in space. By the end of the 20th Century, atomic-powered rockets guided by radar had reached the Moon, Mars and Venus.
Interplanetary exploration and exploitation had increased rapidly. But the vast distances to other stars remained unconquerable until late in the 22nd Century, when three great inventions made interstellar travel possible.
The most important of the three was the discovery of sub-spectrum rays. These were hitherto unsuspected octaves of electromagnetic radiation far below even the gamma and cosmic rays in wavelength, and which had velocities vastly greater than the speed of light.
Of these sub-spectrum rays the most useful were the so-called pressure rays in the Minus-30th octave of the spectrum, which could react against the tenuous cosmic dust of space with a powerful pressure. These pressure rays formed the driving power of star-ships. They were produced in generators powered by atomic turbines, and were jetted from the stern of a ship to drive it thousands of times faster than light.
The second vital invention was that of the mass-control. Einstein's equations had shown that if a ship travelled as fast as light, its mass would expand to infinity. This difficulty was overcome by the mass-control, which "bled" off mass as energy to maintain a constant mass unaltered by velocity. The energy thus obtained was stored in accumulators and fed back automatically whenever speed was reduced.
The final invention concerned the human element, Men's bodies would have been unable ordinarily to withstand those vast accelerations, but this obstacle was conquered by the cradlestasis. This was a stasis of force which gripped every atom in a ship. The energy-drive jets gave their thrust, not to the ship directly, but to its stasis. Thus everyone and everything in the ship remained unaffected by acceleration. Magnetic apparatus furnished artificial gravity on shipboard, similar to that of the tiny gravitation-equalizers worn by all star-travellers.
The fastest of the sub-spectrum rays, those of the Minus-42nd Octave, were so speedy that they made light seem to crawl. These super-speed rays were used in telestereo communication and also in the vital function of radar for the starships.
Using these inventions to build star-ships, mankind took at once to interstellar space. Alpha Centauri, Sirius and Altair were quickly visited.
Colonies were soon established on suitable star-worlds. For some 10,000 years, Sol and Earth remained the center of government of a growing region of colonized stars.
Until then, there had been no serious conflicts. Aboriginal alien races of intelligence had been found at some star-systems and were helped and educated, but there was found no scientific civilization on any star-world. That had been expected, for if such a race existed it would have visited us long before we ourselves had conquered space.
But in the year 12,455, a group of star-systems near Polaris complained that Earth was too remote to appreciate their problems, and they set up an independent kingdom. By 39,000, the kingdoms of Lyra, Cygnus, and the Baronies of the great Hercules Cluster had declared independence.
Criminals and fugitives from the law seeking refuge in the Cloud eventually founded the League of Dark Worlds. By 120,000, the star-kingdoms were many. But the biggest was still the Mid-Galactic Empire, and hosts of star-worlds remained loyal to it. For convenience its government had been shifted in 62,339 from Earth to a world of the great sun Canopus.
The Empire took the lead of the star-kingdoms in the year 129,411 when the galaxy was suddenly invaded by alien and powerful creatures from the Magellanic Clusters outside. And after that invasion was repelled the Empire had steadily grown by exploring and colonizing the wild, unmapped star-systems in the frontier regions called the Marches of Outer Space.
-Edmond Hamilton, 1949

Может ли кто-нибудь пролистать эти тексты на предмет реалий мира "Звёздных королей"?

цитата Starking

И ещё, откуда ваша уверенность, где какое произведение? Вы сравнивали с оригиналами?

цитата jini

Да сравнивал. У меня сильная подборка Гамильтона в оригинале — в ранних довоенных, военных и послевоенных журналах.

цитата Dark Andrew

Относительно "Звездных Королей" — в настоящее время в цикле четыре произведения. Кроме уже упомянутых — "Star Hunters" ("Звездные охотники"), 1958 г. Действие происходит в той же вселенной (ключевые слова — "Маркизаты Внешнего Космоса", "Бароны Геркулеса"), но за несколько тысяч лет до Джона Гордона и Шорр Кана. На русский не переводился; в злачных местах Интернета можно обнаружить английский текст целиком.
