Planet Of Dread

Planet of Dread

by Murray Leinster

In a distant future, humans have colonized countless worlds, but their colonies can only thrive if they replicate the entire ecosystem of Earth. However, on one particular planet, something has gone awry. Over a hundred years ago, something disrupted the ecological balance, and now the crew of the space yacht Nadine must confront the consequences. They find a world where strange creatures roam and the environment is both beautiful and deadly. As they explore, they uncover the secrets of the planet's past and must find a way to survive in this unpredictable and dangerous world.
