First U.S. edition. New York, Ballantine, 1980. 22 cm. 345 pages. Original Softcover. Secondhand book in very good condition. [A Del Rey book].

In a moving story of sacrifice and triumph, human scientists establish a relationship with intelligent lifeforms—the cheela—living on Dragon’s Egg, a neutron star where one Earth hour is equivalent to hundreds of their years. The cheela culturally evolve from savagery to the discovery of science, and for a brief time, men are their diligent teachers. (Publishers information).
