Lucky Starr and the Oceans of Venus

David Starr lost his parents in childhood; they became victims of space pirates. He survived and received the best education in the Galaxy, becoming a lean, handsome athlete with muscles of steel and the analytical mind of a first-rate scientist. Moreover, David became the youngest member of the Council of Science, an organization possessing unlimited powers. But despite all his outstanding qualities, David Starr, nicknamed Lucky, is obsessed with a thirst for adventure, somewhat inclined toward recklessness, and also possesses an exceptional sense of humor. Which means that Isaac Asimov has prepared for us not a meeting with a boring average superman methodically saving the world, but with a true science-fiction hero whose story is sheer pleasure to follow!
