Summary "The Frozen Planet" by Keith Laumer is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The book follows the adventures of Retief, a representative of the Terran Corps, as he embarks on a crucial mission to the Jorgensen's Worlds. These planets are under threat from the aggressive Soetti aliens, and Retief must navigate a range of challenges to prepare the indigenous inhabitants for an impending invasion. In the story, Retief is tasked with delivering critical intelligence about the Soetti's plans and ensuring the Jorgensens can effectively defend themselves against the alien aggression. As he encounters various obstacles, including uncooperative ship crews, hostile aliens, and dubious local authorities, Retief demonstrates cleverness and resourcefulness to outmaneuver threats. Throughout his journey, he meets individuals like Chip, a skilled chef, and Anne-Marie, a local girl, who add dimension to the narrative. The tension escalates as they prepare for the Soetti's assault, building to a climax that deals with themes of bravery, strategy, and the consequences of political machinations.
