Reviews
" To the Stars , by L. Ron Hubbard, is one of the greatest science fiction novels that has ever been written." -Jerry Pournelle, "One of his finest works.... Hubbard brilliantly evokes the vastness of space and the tragedy of those who would conquer it. ...this is indeed golden SF from the Golden Age." --Publishers Weekly Starred review, "Hubbard is a thinker who writes, rather than a writer who thinks, as most masters are." -SFO Chronicle, "One of his finest works....

Synopsis
"Space is deep, Man is small and Time is his relentless enemy?" ? How far is too far? Alan Corday is about to find out. Corday is shanghaied aboard a craft bound for the stars??on a journey approaching the speed of light, the world he leaves behind fast vanishing into the past. And nothing in the dark, forbidding reaches of space can prepare him for the astounding discovery he will make upon his return from the stars., Space is deep Man is small and Time is his relentless enemy... How far is too far? What price do we pay for expanding our knowledge to the limit, for exploring the farthest reaches of the universe, for extending our reach To the Stars? Alan Corday, a smart yet desperate young man, is about to find out. His family fortune squandered and the woman he loves unattainable, Corday will go to almost any length to change his luck. But his desperation leads him into harm's way--and into the hands of one Captain Jocelyn and his crew. Shanghaied from the spaceport at New Chicago, Corday is taken aboard the Hound of Heaven, a craft bound for the stars...on a journey through hell. 186,000 miles per second. The speed of light. The Hound of Heaven approaches this speed to reach its distant destinations. But three months traveling at that speed is equal to half a century on earth--and the world they left behind is fast vanishing into the past. Everything Corday loves, everything he believes in--is history. He is a wanderer in eternity, and nothing in the cold, dark forbidding reaches of space can prepare him for the astounding discovery he will make upon his long-awaited return from the stars. "Just as timely, just as awe-inspiring, just as profoundly moving as it was in 1950." i>Barnes & Noble Explorations Blog " Remarkably powerful novel." ; --John W.
