The Complete Interplanetary Huntress: The Interplanetary Huntress; The Interplanetary Huntress Returns; The Interplanetary Huntress' Last Case

First Time Ever in One Volume! Femme Fatales, a website devoted to "pulp's crime-fighting heroines," proclaims Gerry Carlyle "an adventuress of the first water." Her assignments for the London Interplanetary Zoo are to capture the rarest alien lifeforms in the solar system--and "bring 'em back alive. The only fly in the ointment of this intrepid woman is pilot Tommy Strike, who's just as determined to prove no woman is his superior. Their battles with the most fearsome of otherworldly critters are nothing to their battle with each other! Gerry takes on the giant, saw-tongued whiposarus of Venus, the deadly twinned menace of the dual world, and the fire-breathing, rocklike Cacus of Satellite V. Then, she's off to the moon to rescue the colony there from certain death when the heat, oxygen and gravity fail due to the chilling menace of the energy-eaters. But Luna is only the launching pad for her real adventure, a rocket voyage around the sun for a once-in-a-lifetime chance to rendezvous with Almussen's comet--where she comes face-to-face with the "seven sleepers"--a dangerous alien lifeform within the comet! In her inal outing, up against the most dangerous challenge of in the nine planets! When the sexist Professor Erasmus Kurtt insultingly challenges her to prove who is the "better man" in a race to Saturn and back to capture the planet's deadliest lifeform, with whoever returns to Earth with it first the winner, Gerry's blood boils--and its off for Saturn, with her fiancee, Tommy Strike, at the helm of her atom-powered rocketship, The Ark. But, Erasmus Kurtt is no professor, but a ruthless-schemer with a secret plan of his own. Soon, the Interplanetary Huntress soon finds herself marooned on Saturn, her ship sabotaged, while she must lead her crew into barehanded battle against the sharp-clawed, ten-foot Dermaphos, the eight-legged Kite, and the superdeadly Gora. Treachery, secrets, a friendly alien race, and a last minute battle against monsters that tests Gerry Carlyle's knowledge and skills to the limit show why Galaxy Science Fiction Magazine said, "This will take you back to the good old days of S-F--the heyday of Gerry Carlyle, the fabulously gorgeous interplanetary hunter ... sizzling stuff ... surprisingly readable. If you like a huge collection of assorted BEMs and well-thought-out gimmicks in tight situations, you will assuredly go for this." Genre historian Sam Moskowitz calls her "master science fictioneer Barnes's most original creation, whose exploits combined thrilling space opera with a hilarious, romantic battle-of-the-sexes."
