This is very old time, traditional SF. Giant battleships with inertialess drives, repulsor rays, tractor beams, torpedoes, the whole works. Written in the very traditional 'space opera' style, where the good guys are clean cut, respectable and modest, and the bad guys are inscrutable aliens with evil designs. The heroes of the IPC are astronauts and pilots and heroes all in one. Simplistic by today's standards, (they don't even have computers) this is still great reading, just don't look for Vinge or Simmons style high technology. ( )
