Ports of Call by Jack VanceDescription: As a boy Myron Tany had immersed himself in the lore of space exploration. In his imagination he wandered the far places of the Gaean Reach, thrilling to the exploits of stardusters and locators; of pirates and slavers; of the IPCC and its brave agents...
Myron's parents insisted that he study economics, and Myron dutifully applied himself. But Myron had an aunt - his great aunt Hester Lajoie, a woman of great wealth inherited from a dead husband, and even greater flamboyance of nature. And when Dame Hester came into possession of a space yacht, Myron suddenly was his long-suppressed dreams of adventure bloom into new life.
