Star Born
by Andre Norton
When Rafa Kurbi's Terran spacecraft entered the uncharted skies of the distant planet Astra and was immediately adopted by the natives of the once mighty metropolis, Kurbi was unaware of three vital things: One of them was that Astra had already hidden an earthly colony from refugees from the world of the previous century. Second, these men and women face the greatest danger of their existence due to a new epidemic of inhuman brides who once persecuted Astra. Third, the natives who bought Courby's scientific know-how were equally hostile, and their intentions were irreconcilably fatal to all people, whether Earth was born or a star was born. Andre Norton's space adventure and therefore the peaks in their field!
