Description

The Shadows and Other Stories – four stories by the immensely talented Leigh Brackett. The Shadows (1952) – Friend or foe, they dogged intruding footsteps… Quest of the Starhope (1949) – They were helpless, these human-like captives from other planets, and Quintal, the ruthless hunter, was strong… A World is Born (1941) – Caron the Martian wants to control the fledgling colony on Mercury. Anything up to and including sabotage is fair game… RUNAWAY (1954) – It took a trip to Venus to prove to Reid that the one thing he couldn’t escape was himself. A six chapter novelette. Leigh Brackett (1915 – 1978) was known as the “Queen of Space Opera.” She also was a very talented screenwriter having written the script for The Big Sleep in 1945 and the first draft of The Empire Strikes Back.
