About this title

Synopsis

From pulp adventures such as Edgar Rice Burroughss Carson of Venus to classic short stories such as Ray Bradburys The Long Rain, the planet Venus has loomed large in the imaginations of science fiction writers. Here, that steamy, swampy jungle world with strange creatures lurking amidst the dripping vegetation is explored in sixteen all-new stories collected by bestselling author George R. R. Martin and editor Gardner Dozois.
