| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "Beam Pirate" by George O. Smith is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story revolves around the high-stakes competition between two interplanetary corporations over control of a solar power transmission technology. Set against a backdrop of intricate space communication systems and corporate intrigue, the narrative explores themes of technological innovation, corporate rivalry, and moral dilemmas in an advanced extraterrestrial civilization. The plot follows Mark Kingman, an attorney for Terran Electric, who is embroiled in a fierce struggle against Venus Equilateral, a company that holds a monopoly on solar beam transmission. Kingman grapples with both technological challenges, such as the obstructive Channing Layer, which hinders power transmission, and the manipulative tactics of stock market piracy. As Kingman plots to regain dominance and secure his company's future, the narrative unfolds with clever strategic moves, unexpected discoveries, and moral questions about the lengths one will go to for power and control. Ultimately, the story culminates in an intense clash of ingenuity and ethics as both companies vie for supremacy in the cosmos, making for an engaging and thought-provoking read.
