5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT TRIOGY, August 18, 2006
This review is from: The Book of Skaith: The Adventures of Eric John Stark (Hardcover)
This particular book is a three in one and includes "The Ginger Star," "The Hounds of Skaith," and "The Reavers of Skaith." This is good, adventure SiFi in the Burroughs tradition. The book follows the adventures of one Eric John Stark. Leigh Brackett is quite strong in character development, is an excellent story teller and keeps the pages turning. This paricular book was published in 1976 but the stories go back to a publishing date of 1974. All in all this is a good read and a pleasing way to spend a weekend. Recommend.

this three book sequel is among the best novels ever written about alien people and setting; an extraordinary man (Stark) meets his doom while searching for his would be father on a remote planet (Skaith) circling a dying star. A magnificent story of love, death and survival through strange places and trading with weird aliens. Much better than the silly ER Burrough Mars story people keep comparing it with...
