Adzel

Blog correspondent, Michael Silverling, scanned this interior art picture of Adzel from the Analog magazine serialization of Poul Anderson's Satan's World. The art is by Kelly Freas.

Adzel is carrying someone: David Falkayn?

Michael thought that I might find the art of interest and I thought that blog readers might.

Since Adzel is running through an alien environment, this post will be published on the Poul Anderson's Cosmic Environments blog and will later be copied to Poul Anderson Appreciation.

Kaor, Paul!

I just realized how complex and difficult space armor/protective wear would be for a draco/centauroid like Adzel! A lot of thought and ingenuity would be devoted to making such things as simple and quick to don as possibles.

And other species, like the Ythrians, don't use such gear at all. Which would increase the dangers and difficulties of space traveling for them.
