"Enchantress of Venus" continues the planetary adventures of mercenary Eric John Stark, one of Leigh Brackett's most iconic creations.
Eric John Stark arrives on Venus in search of his friend, Halvi. Approaching the town of Shuruun he is ambushed & falls overboard, and eventually makes his way to the town.
But there is something mysterious happening in Shruun, and it seems the Lhari--the elite rulers & slavemasters of the town--are at the center of it.
Can Stark find his friend and save the townsfolk, while preventing the rulers from unearthing dangers from Venus' ancient past? It will take all his abilities to incite a successful rebellion when the very townsfolk consider him untrustworthy.
