Description
Planet Explorers (originally published as Colonial Survey) is a premier “fix-up” novel by the “Dean of Science Fiction,” Murray Leinster (William Fitzgerald Jenkins). The story follows Bordman, a dedicated officer of the Colonial Survey Service, as he travels to various fledgling space colonies to evaluate their viability. From the frozen landscapes of Lani III to the scorching deserts of Xancadu, Bordman must use his scientific expertise to solve critical environmental and biological threats. The collection includes the Hugo Award-winning novella “Exploration Team,” which famously features a team of genetically enhanced Kodiak bears assisting in a planet’s survival.
