Dorothy Quick, one of the most prolific women writers in pulp science fiction and horror magazines including Weird Tales, also wrote a planetary romance novel in 1938-with an emphasis on romance. A blend of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and John Carter of Mars (but with more kissing), Strange Awakening is the tale of Iva, a young woman from Long Island who finds herself transported to Venus by the Great Mind, the planet's despotic and sexually frustrated ruler. Coming to her rescue is Ota, the leader of Venus's Blue People, who risks his kingdom and his immortality to overthrow the Great Mind so he can marry the Earth Girl. Vivid descriptions of Venusian civilization, court intrigue, and adventure abound in what was regrettably Quick's only science fiction novel.
