The descendants of the Atlanteans became eternal wanderers in the vastness of the Galaxy. Due to an all-planetary cataclysm, the Atlanteans left their homes and went to the stars in search of happiness... This was the thousand-first starship, “Wanderer-1001,” which we built during the flight to an unexplored planet, using materials from previously captured asteroids. Our path lay on an unknown planet in a distant star system, where no one had ever been before. The heroine Vaska Thorne, a young pilot of the Drifter-1001, and her companions are in for extraordinary adventures. A high-speed clipper sent for reconnaissance into Roche's cavity will fall into the gravitational trap of a double star. The astronauts will find themselves on the inhabited Island of Lost Spaceships. The islanders will attack the “wanderers”, capture the clipper, and take someone prisoner. The enemy has the latest technology; he is strong, cunning and dangerous. Only a decisive battle and excellent ingenuity can help the heroes.
