Scott Miller, 2025

Mac Thornwald wants nothing more than a quiet life after losing his arm in the line of duty. But Bleekman’s Planet, a remote frontier world, is not the peaceful refuge it appears to be. Within minutes of landing, he’s beaten, jailed, and marked as the Governor’s newest piece of property. His escape sets off a tense, fast-moving confrontation in a world where one man’s tyranny has gone unchecked for far too long. As Thornwald navigates a hostile city, he discovers that Bleekman’s Planet isn’t merely corrupt—it’s trapped under the iron grip of Governor Henderson, who controls everything from the law to the valuable thylomine trade. Getting off-world is impossible, so Thornwald does the next best thing: he brings the fight straight to the Governor’s door. What follows is a clever, high-stakes showdown where a single prosthetic arm becomes a weapon no one saw coming. Randall Garrett and Robert Silverberg, two giants of mid-century science fiction, collaborated on several dynamic adventure stories during their early careers. Garrett was known for bold, witty tales of law enforcement, intrigue, and future politics, while Silverberg would later become one of the most celebrated authors in science fiction history. Together, they brought a crisp, energetic voice to the genre, crafting stories filled with sharp action, tight pacing, and memorable characters. Bleekman’s Planet stands as a classic example of their early work—lean, smart, and loaded with the kind of narrative punch that made both authors lasting favorites among fans of vintage sci-fi.
