All the Queen's Men 3: Voodoo Planet

“As a die-hard science-fiction fan, I grew up reading the books by Andre Norton. Many are now out-of-print or hard to find. So I applaud this reissuing of one of her greatest sci-fi adventure series!”
- H.L. Osterman, Robots and Rust Buckets

The Solar Queen space opera novels by Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America grandmaster Andres Norton (A/K/A Andrew North) should be on the reading list of every sci-fi fan. The third book in the series, Voodoo Planet tells the ongoing adventures of Dane Thorson, Acting Cargomaster on the Solar Queen, a battered tramp spaceship that trades merchandise throughout the universe. This time out, Dane and the men of the Solar Queen land on a planet inhabited by descendants of African tribesmen -- and must survive a battle of “magic” between the Queen’s crafty medic and a powerful witch doctor. With nearly two-dozen new illustrations.

Often called “The Grand Dame of Science Fiction and Fantasy,” Andre Alice Norton (née Alice Mary Norton) also is known by the pen names of Andrew North and Allen Weston. Practically minded, she knew science fiction books by men sold better to the male fan base. Nonetheless, Norton was the first woman to become a Gandalf Grand Master of Fantasy, the first woman to become an SFWA Grand Master, and the first woman to be inducted into the Science Fiction and Fantasy Hall of Fame. In 1998 she won the World Fantasy Award for Lifetime Achievement.
