Tom Jenkins wants to go to space. But here at Brighthome Youth Center there isn't much of a chance to do anything like that. The only hope he has is in the legend of a space pirate visiting on occasion to recruit special chosen ones. Tom doesn't really believe it though. He's just doing his best to survive--when the legend comes true.
I loved this book! It took me back to my (long past) teenage years when I was discovering the works of an author named Robert Heinlein. If you have read Heinlein's junenille works (Between Planets, Farmer in the Sky, Starman Jones, etc) and enjoyed them then you will enjoy Spacer Dreams. It's a fine, fun adventure that recalls the roots of science fiction.
