"Enchantress of Venus" by Leigh Brackett is a science fiction novel written in the mid-20th century. The story unfolds on the mysterious planet of Venus, focusing on the character Stark, who is faced with danger and intrigue upon his arrival in the ominous city of Shuruun. Stark navigates an eerie world filled with strange politics, pirates, and the enigmatic Lhari, as he seeks to uncover the fate of his friends and contend with his adversaries. The opening of the novel presents Stark's journey towards Shuruun, where he is filled with a sense of foreboding as he traverses the treacherous Red Sea and encounters the unwelcoming captain Malthor, who seems to harbor his own dark motives. Tension builds as Stark senses something sinister at play and is attacked by the crew of the ship; he escapes into the depths of the mysterious sea, only to find himself in an even more dangerous situation in Shuruun, where he meets Zareth, Malthor's daughter. As Stark learns more about the city's secrets, the haunting chants of the Lost Ones and the threats from the Lhari cast a shadow over his fate in this vividly imagined and perilous landscape.
