Black Amazon of Mars by Leigh Brackett, Science Fiction, Adventure
by Leigh Brackett
A lost classic from the writer of The Empire Strikes Back.
Okay so imagine Han Solo is now an Earthman named Eric John Stark, raised by Mercurian aborigines, and now escorting his dying friend home to the polar ice caps of Mars. Imagine tusken raiders assaulting a magic ice castle on Hoth, only to be confronted with an ancient evil made out of ice crystal technology. That's Black Amazon of Mars. It's pretty good. Maybe the best SF/F pulp novel I've ever read.
Also I think George RR Martin owes something to this: two groups at war must put aside enmity to confront ancient ice-themed evil haunting the far north.
