Reading Andre Norton's sci-fi books about the free-trader "Solar Queen" at the moment; Sargasso of Space, Plague ship and Voodoo Planet. Great stuff from the 1950's!

I have Saragasso of Space and quite enjoyed it. Never realized there were others! I'll have to hunt for Plague Ship and Voodoo Planet. Good stuff though, to be sure.

I think you can find some ebook versions of Plague ship and Voodoo Planet on manybooks.net

Wiki can tell you of other Norton books. Quite amazing her volume of writings.

The other Solar Queen book from that period would be "Postmarked the Stars".

In a Traveller context, you may also want to look for The Zero Stone, Uncharted Stars, Star Guard, Night of Masks, and Dark Piper.

There are at least two recent "Solar Queen" books (recent = from the 1990s), written by Sherwood Smith in collaboration with Norton. If anything, they're better than the originals -- they feel a bit less 1950's, if you know what I mean.
