Sommaire:
A sweeping collection of planetary adventure and hard-edged science fiction from Leigh Brackett, the Queen of Space Opera. This Super Pack gathers a substantial selection of Brackett's classic tales of Mars, Venus, distant star systems, and lawless frontier worlds.

A formative voice of mid-twentieth-century science fiction, Brackett brought literary sharpness and cinematic scale to pulp adventure. Her planetary romances helped shape the tone of later space opera and influenced generations of writers and filmmakers.
