Joseph J. Millard's great reputation to pulp science fiction fans rests largely on two works—his short novels The Gods Hate Kansas and Thunder to Venus.

Thunder to Venus is a rip-roaring adventure set in space, as Titus Conway, a ruthless business tycoon, blacklists Lane Shannon and tries to banish him from the space-ways. There's a bitter showdown coming in the trackless void, pitting one determined man against the vast resources of an interstallar company!
