Аннотация

Phssthpok the Pak had been traveling for most of his thirty-two thousand years. His mission: save, develop, and protect the group of Pak breeders sent out into space some two and a half million years before…
Brennan was a Belter, the product of a fiercely independent, somewhat anarchic society living in, on, and around an outer asteroid belt. The Belters were rebels, one and all, and Brennan was a smuggler. The Belt worlds had been tracking the Pak ship for days — Brennan figured to meet that ship first…
He was never seen again — at least not by those alive at the time.

The work fleshes out a species called the Pak, originally introduced in a story called Pak Protectors. The first half of the novel is titled Phssthpok and the second half is titled Vandervecken. The first half was previously published as The Adults. The novel Destroyer of Worlds will serve as a semi-sequel to Protector.

Nominated for Hugo and Locus awards in 1974.
