Reissued after seventy-five years out of print--and in hardcover for the first time in a generation--Lucky Starr and the Oceans of Venus is the third novel in the Lucky Starr series written by the legendary Isaac Asimov, author of Foundation, the Galactic Empire series, and I, Robot. The Lucky Starr series was originally published under the pseudonym Paul French.
From a distance it seemed an emerald green, fairyland bubble!
Aphrodite, the largest city on Venus, deep beneath the planet's sea. Earthmen had established an incredible civilization, but now it is threatened by an unknown force preying on men's minds.
"Bigman's head snapped back at a sudden new and strange sound. It was a voice, flat, without intonation. It said, "Do not tamper with your machine of far-reaching sound. We do not wish it."
Bigman turned. His mouth fell open and, for a moment, stayed so. He said, "Who said that? Where is it?"
Lucky said, "Easy, Bigman. It was inside your head."
How will Lucky Starr fight off an enemy that can get inside people's heads?
Isaac Asimov (1920-1992), one of the best-known and most successful authors to emerge from the golden age of science fiction, was born in the Soviet Union and came to the United States in 1923. He earned his PhD in chemistry in 1948, and in 1958 became a full-time writer. His writings include the Foundation series; I, Robot; Tomorrow's Children; and numerous works of nonfiction touching on a range of scientific topics. Among his accolades are six Hugo Awards, a SFWA Grand Master Award, and high praise from such luminaries as Kurt Vonnegut, Arthur C. Clarke, and Gene Roddenberry.
