The full-length novel Earthblood by Keith Laumer and Rosel George Brown chronicles one man's struggle to find his destiny in a future where the very existence of Earth is a legend that few believe. According to the legends, Earth had fought a desperate war against the hostile aliens called the Niss, but had finally been defeated. This happened millennia ago and humanity had scattered across the galaxy. If Earth still exists, if it ever existed, its location has been lost through the ages. Roan had heard the legends, and even though he had been raised by a kindly alien couple, he knew that he was human—and nothing was going to stop him from finding his lost homeworld. Not even the conquering space fleets of the Niss.
Plus, for the first time in one volume, all of Keith Laumer's other stories of the alien Niss are included with Earthblood. Included as well are a generous assortment of stories by Rosel George Brown, who was a master of pointedly humorous adventure.
Science fiction adventure, ranging from the grim to the wildly comical, by two masters of the form.
