Signet July 1, 1989
Garry thinks he knows something that all of humankind would kill to have, the secret to the Faster-Than-Light drive. He believes that it is inside a Kurs’ggthan artifact. When a little man enters his father’s pawnshop and offers to sell the very artifact Garry has been searching for, he is bewildered by his good fortune. But he may not be as lucky as he thinks. Now that he holds the key to the drive, his father’s business has been destroyed, Garry’s on the run, his father is in critical condition and interstellar agents lurk on every corner.

5.0 out of 5 stars I can't believe it's not re-published, February 3, 2000
By 
"karhatsu" (Lakeville, MN United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Yesterday's Pawn (Signet) (Paperback)
I won't do Mr Quick the injustice of comparing him to anyone else in the Sci-Fi world. He truly stands alone. His books are somewhat hard to come by but may be republished in the future. If you like Niven, Pournelle or Stephenson you'll love all of Quicks work.

This review is from: Yesterday's Pawn (Signet) (Paperback)
If you like Gibson's work, well here is where he copied his ideas from. Well written and good technology. Read them all.
