Starblood Hollywood Comics Starblood Paperback

Nathalie Henneberg (1910-1977) remains a unique voice in the history of French imaginative literature. This is the second volume of a multi-volume collection of her works to be released by Black Coat Press.Volume 1 THE GREEN GODS, translated by C. J. Cherryh, was first published to critical acclaim in 2010. This volume collects Starblood (1963) and The Lost Fortress (1962), both translated by William Oarlock.The former is the colorful tale of a parallel medieval Earth featuring elementals and astronauts vying for the love of a Salamander; and the latter, set in 2400, is the story of a colony ship arriving at the haunted planet of Isis in Alpha Centauris.Combining classic French and Golden Age American SF reminiscent of Jack Williamson and Robert Heinlein, with "Old World" literature, sagas and epics, her writing precedes the "New Wave" of the 1960s and later mythopoetic space operas by Ursula K. Le Guin, Roger Zelazny, C.J. Cherryh, Philip Jose Farmer and Joan D. Vinge.
