Helva was born with massive debilitating physical deformities. Her brain, however, was unaffected and highly intelligent. Placed inside a capsule which overcame all her physical disabilities through advanced cybernetic enhancements, Helva was a formidable individual. Beyond her other distinctions was a love of music. Placed inside a spaceship with her Brawn at her side, she became The Ship Who Sang. Originally published by Walker & Co. in 1969, is has been republished in 16 other editions including German, Italian, Dutch, Hebrew, and Japanese translations.
