"Gale Allen and Her Girl Squadron" by Douglas McKee involves a jailbreak on Venus with revolt and murder, as Gale and her patrol seize small ships to aid escaping convicts while a prison is destroyed. "Red Comet" follows the adventures of Rusty and Dolores as they explore space, encountering wrecked ships and discovering that Elva has crashed on a treacherous planet; Rusty searches for her body while Red Comet's new compass-like instrument is demonstrated for exploring uncharted worlds. "Star Pirate" features Trody confronting a ghost-like moll and encountering a pirate in a safe-cracking sequence, leading to action involving a ray torch and a confrontation that leaves the pirate apparently dead, while a ghost subsequently appears.
Star Pirate hunts across the space lanes for the Pearl of Neptune after the ruthless Ghost Gangster of Space steals it from his fort and kills his lieutenant. With only a jewel fence named Mog holding the key to finding his enemy, Star Pirate sets a trap in the criminal underworld of Neptune—but the Ghost's arrival brings unexpected complications and betrayals. This classic space adventure from 1942 delivers swashbuckling action as Star Pirate and his companion Trody face down criminals, double-crosses, and a dangerous showdown for the fateful jewel.
