| Summary | "Larson's Luck" by Gerald Vance is a science fiction novel likely written during the early 1940s. The story revolves around the unpredictable adventures of an eccentric space pilot named Lucky Larson, who is known for his erratic flying and penchant for stunts. The book explores themes of bravery, luck, and the perils associated with space travel through a gripping narrative. The plot unfolds as Larson is piloting a space vessel loaded with radium when a group of criminals takes the crew hostage with plans to steal the precious cargo. As the tension escalates, Larson's wild flying maneuvers inadvertently foil the bandits' plot and ultimately lead to their capture. The protagonist grapples with injury and uncertainty but demonstrates resourcefulness and courage, reliant on Larson's unorthodox style to save the day. In the end, both Larson and his companion are commended for their quick thinking and luck, culminating in a thrilling and satisfying conclusion. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
