Final Victim
Ray Bradbury
A frightened young man flees across an asteroid’s razor-sharp cliffs, desperately trying to reach safety before a patrolman guns him down. But what begins as a manhunt becomes something far stranger when the killer patrolman, Jim Skeel, returns to base—carrying secrets darker than any vacuum outside the dome. Soon, a vengeful sister, a notorious pirate, and a nightmare swarm of nocturnal alien creatures collide in a deadly trap where survival depends on light, nerve, and truth. Final Victim is a tense, atmospheric journey through guilt, frontier justice, and the line between duty and obsession—without ever revealing what waits at the final moment.
Ray Bradbury and Henry Hasse—lifelong friends and early collaborators—wrote a number of remarkable stories together before Bradbury became one of the most influential voices in 20th-century speculative fiction. Their joint work blends Hasse’s hard-edged, pulp-era momentum with Bradbury’s signature humanity and emotional resonance. Bradbury would go on to create The Martian Chronicles, Fahrenheit 451, and decades of world-defining short fiction, while Hasse became known for tales of cosmic scale such as He Who Shrank.
Together they forged early space adventures that shaped the tone of modern sci-fi. Final Victim showcases the raw energy of two great talents on the rise.
