Planet Stories: Northwest of Earth
75th Anniversary Edition!
From the crumbling temples of forgotten gods on Venus to the seedy pleasure halls of old Mars¸ Northwest Smith blazes a trail through the underbelly of the solar system in 13 action-packed stories you won't soon forget. Among the best-written and most emotionally complex stories of the Pulp Era¸ the tales of intergalactic smuggler Northwest Smith still resonate strongly 75 years after their first publication. A staple of Weird Tales in its Golden Age¸ C.L. Moore's stories appeared alongside work by H.P. Lovecraft¸ Robert E. Howard¸ and Clark Ashton Smith¸ forming the backbone of the "unique magazine's" approach to science fiction and planetary adventure.
For the first time ever¸ all of Northwest Smith's adventures have been collected in a single volume¸ including "Quest of the Starstone"¸ which pairs Smith with Moore's other famous creation¸ the fierce swordswoman Jirel of Joiry!
