Jungle in the Sky

Jungle in the Sky

Stephen Marlowe

1952

The 1950s space age meets big-game hunting in this propulsive adventure. Steve Stedman, a fresh Extra-terrestrial Zoology graduate, talks his way onto the Gordak, a spaceship bound for ten alien worlds where the crew hunts exotic creatures for Earthside exhibition. But the real game is closer to home: a hostile captain, a murderous French rival, and the mystery of his brother's death on Ganymede. As the ship blasts toward Mercury and beyond, Steve must navigate both alien jungles and cutthroat human politics, all while wondering if he'll survive long enough to uncover the truth. Vintage sci-fi adventure at its finest, with an edge of noir.
