Book Review of The Coming of The Terrans

The Coming of The Terrans
The Coming of The Terrans
Author: Leigh Brackett
Book Type: Paperback
reviewed on


A dying planet, dried up and hostile - a planet of countless years and countless mysteries.

When the Terrans came, they found a world of dead sea-bottoms, lost civilizations, and secretive tribes bitterly resenting their intrusion on the fading glory of an ancient planet.

The Earthmen looked down upon the crumbling ruins of a brilliant culture, and laughed at the stories of invincible gods and forgotten magic lingering in the forbidden cities... they would not laugh for long.
