Summary | "Pirates of the Gorm" by Nathan Schachner is a science fiction novel published in the early 20th century, specifically during the 1930s. The story centers around a thrilling interplanetary adventure where the protagonist, Grant Pemberton, embarks on a mission to uncover the mysteries behind the disappearance of several space-fliers within the vicinity of Jupiter, leading to encounters with Ganymedan pirates and a secretive conspiracy. The narrative follows Grant Pemberton, who is secretly serving as an agent of the Interplanetary Secret Service, as he boards the space-liner "Althea" under the guise of an ordinary passenger. Early on, he faces an assassination attempt by a Ganymedan, indicating a deeper conspiracy at play. As the "Althea" falls prey to a meteor shower orchestrated by the Ganymedans, Grant teams up with a woman named Nona Gail, and together they uncover a hidden island of captured ships on Jupiter where the Ganymedans plan to dominate the solar system using a mysterious, powerful force known as the Gorm. The story is filled with action, tension, and an exploration of themes such as betrayal and the morality of power as Grant and Nona strive against the odds to thwart the Ganymedans' sinister plot.
