Summary

Leigh Brackett's 'Black Amazon of Mars' is a captivating science fiction novel that immerses readers in a gripping tale of intergalactic adventure and daring escapades. Set in a distant future where space travel and alien civilizations are the norm, the book's narrative style is rich in descriptive detail and vivid imagery, transporting the reader to the barren landscapes of the Red Planet and beyond. Brackett's seamless blend of action, suspense, and thoughtful introspection places this work within the realm of classic science fiction literature, appealing to both casual readers and genre enthusiasts alike. The book provides a unique exploration of themes such as loyalty, honor, and the inherent mysteries of the universe, making it a thought-provoking read for those interested in speculative fiction. Leigh Brackett, known for her contributions to the science fiction genre, drew inspiration from her own fascination with planetary exploration and the possibilities of extraterrestrial life when crafting 'Black Amazon of Mars'. Her background as a screenwriter for numerous Hollywood films also shines through in her ability to create captivating dialogue and dynamic characters that resonate with readers long after the final page. Brackett's legacy as a pioneering female voice in science fiction further adds depth and significance to this engaging work. I highly recommend 'Black Amazon of Mars' to anyone seeking a thrilling and thought-provoking journey through the cosmos. Leigh Brackett's skillful storytelling and imaginative world-building make this novel a must-read for fans of classic science fiction and those looking to explore new frontiers of the genre.

    Even though I don’t want to go to the dungeon!Caught up in a “Hero Summoning,” the hapless Mukohda was brought to another world from modern Japan, but he decided to make the most of it and enjoy a leisurely life of travel with his familiars, Fel and Sui. With new goddesses forcing blessings on him in exchange for offerings, and another familiar in the form of a peckish pixie dragon, Mukohda steadily amasses wealth and power. Finally, the cowardly hero (with a little “help” from his friends) has reached the city of Dolan, where he will challenge the city’s dungeon, whether he wants to or not! But the challenges start before he sets foot inside the dungeon, such as getting accosted by a disappointment of a guildmaster, extorted for booze by some rather intense male gods, and splurging on an actual kitchen stove. For Mukohda, diligent preparation for dungeon diving begins with preparing enough meals to satisfy his voracious companions. Thus armed to battle his familiar’s hunger, Mukohda’s party sets its sights on glorious battle in the dungeon. With ridiculous skills and overpowered magic beasts on his side, does the dungeon even stand a chance……?!
