This is it! The premiere adventure of TOM CORBETT, the first science fiction hero of television's Golden Age. With the over-whelming success of the series, the program expanded to radio, a syndicated comic strip, over a hundred toys and products, eight full-length hardback novels and countless comic books.

In this thrill-packed adventure, Earth's existence is threatened by beings from another world. It pits Tom and his cohorts against a space fleet from the dark side of Mercury. Like all of Tom's adventures, it opens your imagination and keeps you on the edge of your seat. I ought to know, I was Tom Corbett, Space Cadet.
