About
Venna's Planet is the story of Venna 8632, a strong-willed, highly skilled, soldier-drilled woman on a mission in outer space, where gravity keeps you perky and the future appears to be rather retro. She's a crew member of the Suntreader, which has been travelling for fifty years (mostly with her occupants in cryogenic hibernation) in order to find a new planet to colonize.
Tired of playing shoot 'em up with aliens, Venna yearns to settle on the newest planet the Suntreader has been orbiting - a world they have named Promise. Unfortunately, the only promise Venna is living on is the continuation of a futile war with the current inhabitants - the Krogs... and that's reached somewhat of a predictable stalemate.
Venna encounters a swamp monster which inconveniently eats her clothes, she then turns to a sprightly milkbug herder named Suhl for some much-needed help. Meanwhile, two Krogs - Geezur and Blok - are dispatched to capture the downed Venna. To a Krog, however, one human looks very much like another...
