This book, like all the books I've seen in the "Galactic Encounters" series, appears to be a less than impressive story used to justify the inclusion of some pretty impressive artwork.

Although the pictures are all s/f themed it is relatively obvious that they were not originally intended to go together. I rate the books in this series more as interesting collections of random art than as great works of literature.

Epigraph
Dedication
First words
Many of the inhabitants of the Galactic Federation believe that throughout the many systems within the Federal boundaries, thousands of planets teem with bustling colonial settlements, whose members are busily carving a prosperous niche for themselves far from the well-regulated lives of those living on the central planets.
