Wednesday Cover: PLANET STORIES

I recently re-read Leigh Brackett's The Secret of Sinharat - a/k/a Queen Of The Martian Catacombs - and am now moving on to The Ginger Star. Both stories feature her interplanetary antihero, Eric John Stark, one of the most fascinating characters in space opera. Every time I dig into Brackett's work, I find myself awed, humbled and inspired... and that's good.
