Voodoo Planet Andre Norton 9781544881256 Books Reviews
“Voodoo Planet” (1959) follows "Sargasso of Space" (1955) and its sequel "Plague Ship" (1956), and precedes “Postmarked the Stars” (1969) in the series of ‘Solar Queen’ space adventure novels, starring Dane Thorson, a lanky young apprentice-Cargo Master.
After ten years of schooling, Dane had been assigned via a computer analysis of his psychological profile, to a battered tramp of a Free Trader. To say that the 'Solar Queen' "lacked a great many refinements and luxurious fittings which the Company ships boasted" was an understatement. But she was a tightly-run ship and what she lacked in refinement, she made up for in adventure. Dane soon settles in under Cargo Master Van Rycke and learns "to his dismay what large gaps unfortunately existed in his training."
”Voodoo Planet” weighs in as the slightest of the four original ‘Solar Queen’ novels at 159 pages, and features only Dane, Captain Jellico, and ship’s medic, Tau out of the original crew. While the ‘Queen is being fitted up for her new job as an interstellar mail carrier, the three crew members are invited to Khatka, a planet settled by African refugees from Terra’s ancient racial wars.
Norton’s fascination with magic is woven into this novel via a witch doctor gone over to the Dark Side. Lumbrilo is in league with poachers who are stripping the planet of its native animals. Captain Jellico, Medic Tau, and Dane team up with Khatka’s Chief Ranger and his men to track down the off-world thieves and their powerful sorcerer, after their flitter crash-lands in a remote game preserve.
Minor Norton but a must for ‘Solar Queen’ fans.
Love anything by Andre Norton, never disappointed.
It has been years since I first read Andre Norton's books, but they hold up against the tide of time and science...first rate adventures.
