Vandarian Incident

This book is set in the future, where humans have inhabited other planets in our solar system. Two young students of the military academy are sent on a mission across barren and dangerous territory. A slight rivalry exists between them,and while on their journey they encounter problems.Fortunately, these are overcome, their mission is complete and they are promoted to the next stage of their training. A brilliant story, though first printed many years ago. It is worth-while reading for 9 to 12 year olds. Godfreys builds up the plot with well planned suspense, and uses great descriptions to bolster the reader's imagination.
