 Lucky Starr and the Pirates of the Asteroids by Isaac Asimov Detailed Book Review
By far the very best Lucky Starr book, the plot starts off with a boobytrapped ship which is sent into the asteroids with the hope that pirates will find it, bring it home, and blow themselves up (the ship is rigged to explode).
Lucky, however, changes the script a bit by stowing away on the boobytrapped ship and trying to convince the pirates that he wants to join them.
Lucky goes after their flagship, which is on its way to Saturn to form an alliance with their deadly enemy, the Sirians.

Lucky is fighting against the pirates, some of whom may have killed his parents when he was a child.

Lucky Starr and the Rings of Saturn is the final volume, and has Lucky confronting Earth's main enemy, the Sirians, who have invaded the moons of Saturn.
