Ли Брэкетт — библиография

Шандакора — город государство. Его жители когда-то покорили весь Марс, но сейчас утратили и былую славу и былое количество. Они смирились с участью вымирания и живут в мире призраков и воспоминаний. Простому землянину, пусть и ученому, это не понять. Не понять, почему не стоит бороться до конца.

Земная экспедиция наткнулась на планету, когда-то населенную разумными существами. Теперь от них остались лишь скелеты да развалины их городов. Что же погубило эту цивилизацию? Может быть к ее гибели имеют отношение странные тени, которые не похожи на обычное природное явление?

Землянин Харра обратил внимание на прекрасную девушку Маритт, танцевавшую на площади в одном из городов на Ганимеде. После её выступления Харра пытался познакомиться с ней, но неожиданно на девушку напали трое неизвестных. Харра решает выручить её из беды. Выясняется, что он не одинок в этом стремлении.

Землянин Дэвид Хит побывал возле удивительного Лунного Огня и, пораженный проклятьем, проводит время в попытках забыться. Бежавшие от венерианских жрецов воин Брока и его подруга Алор заставляют Дэвида отправиться с ними к Лунному Огню. Жрецы преследуют их, чтобы покарать святотатцев.

More feared than the deadly green snakes, the hideous red beetles of that outpost of Earth Empire, was the winged dragon queen of Jupiter and her white Legions of Doom! A pulp classic from the «queen of space opera»!

An eerie story of a silver land beneath the black Venusian seas. A grim tale of brooding terror whirling out of space to drive men mad, of a menace without name or form, and of the man, Lundy, who fought the horror, his eyes blinded by his will. For to see the terror was to become its slave—a mindless automaton whose only wish was to see behind the shadowed mysterious eyelids of «IT».

The people of Mars were perverse. They did not want Earth’s proffer of rich land, much water, new power. They fought rehabilitation. And with them fought Carey, the Earthman who wanted only the secret that lay at the end of the road to Sinharat. &t;br/&t; Leigh Brackett was the undisputed Queen of Space Opera and the first women to be nominated for the coveted Hugo Award.

She was the last person in the world I expected to see. But she was there, in the moonlight, lying across the porch of my rented cabin. At her throat was a gleam of dim fire that even by moonlight you knew had to be made by nothing less than diamonds. She was very beautiful. Her name was Marjorie, and once upon a time, a thousand years ago, she had been engaged to me. &t;br/&t; Leigh Brackett was the undisputed Queen of Space Opera and the first women to be nominated for the coveted Hugo Award.

There are men in space again. The catastrophic words went out from Mars to damp Venus and frost–wracked Mercury; to the lunar colonies of Jupiter and Saturn.
