Mission to Universe

by Gordon R. Dickson

General Benjamin Shore was heading for the stars under forged orders and in defiance of the commands of the President. He was leaving Earth in an untested ship with a crew chosen by neccesity and with nothing but faith to guide him. His onlt yhope was to find habitable worlds in the unexplored reaches of space ahead.
Thus began Man's first mission to the uncharted universe.
Shore had no illusions. Before him lay danger, probable disappointment even death. But nothing had prepared him for the nightmare he would have to face on the planet of the GrayFurs...for the menace of the Golden People who had driven all other races from Galactic Center or for what awaited him if he returned to the world he called home!
