Nightmare Planet ♦ By Murray Leinste

The novella "Nightmare Planet" is the conclusion to Murray Leinster's popular Argosy series and is most closely linked to his previous tales "The Mad Planet" and "The Red Dust." A spaceship lands on a seemingly uninhabited planet that turns out to be the vestiges of a grotesque science experiment gone horribly awry. Will the crew members be able to survive in this hostile territory?
