OR, THE STRUGGLE FOR DUARE. After his accidental arrival on the planet Venus, called Amtor by its humanoid inhabitants, Carson Napier of California, U.S.A. met and became enamored of the ravishingly beautiful Amtorian princess, Duare. It took much time for the two to become lovers, and during that time a picaresque series of travails beset the visiting American. Duare was captured by the vile Moskoo, an Onyangan (Amtorian: "Great Friend"), who, like everyone who encountered her attempted to violate and defile her sacrosanct person. In the instance we discuss, Carson attacked and ultimately killed Moskoo, a cruel and corrupt official of the Thorist Party (see Venusian Politics: the Thorist Ascendancy by R.F. Snell, 1968). Stuff like that was always happening on the Planet of Love, the Evening Star.
