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. Her fiction combines noir-inflected toughness with sweeping cosmic imagination: ruined cities beneath alien skies, interplanetary intrigue, smouldering desert planets, and heroes navigating moral ambiguity in hostile environments.
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. This volume offers readers an expansive introduction to one of the most dynamic storytellers of the Golden Age of science fiction.
