''The Stardroppers'' is a science fiction novel by John Brunner. It was originally published at novella-length in 1962 as ''Listen, the Stars'', in ''Analog'' and then as part of an Ace Double in 1963; in 1972 the revised, novel-length form was published by DAW Books. == Plot introduction == ''The Stardroppers'' is about an undercover United Nations agent investigating a new fad, "stardropping", whereby physics-violating equipment is used to listen to sounds believed to be alien or paranormal signals. Superficially a harmless but expensive hobby, stardropping reins in a fanaticism resembling addiction, where some users assemble in semi-social communes and spend all of their money on increasingly improved equipment. The fad gains an additional aspect of risk when users begin disappearing into thin air, in cases of increasing profile and witnessing.
