The Grand Tour of Funny Worlds - Trevor Palmer - Bog

In this introductory story to the Dave Hogarth space adventures trilogy he joins the first small party to experience a grand tour of the planets of a distant star system. The variation in the conditions on these alien worlds and the creatures to be found dwelling upon them is weird and often amusing. However, there is a hidden agenda by some of the party as well as some astonishing finds which bring the holiday tour to an unexpected conclusion.
