Interplanetary Hunter is a 1956 collection of science fiction short stories by American writer Arthur K. Barnes. It was first published by Gnome Press in 1956 in an edition of 4,000 copies, and later reissued in paperback by Ace Books in 1972.
Five short stories of the interplanetary hunters Gerry Carlyle and Tommy Strike visiting Saturn, Neptune, Venus, Almussen’s Comet and Jupiter as they search for alien species for capture and return to Earth.
Tommy Strike and Gerry Carlyle stalk the monstrous Whip, suffer under the onslaughts of the Whiz-bang Beetles and track the huge Shovel-Mouth on Venus. On the fifth Jovian satellite, they meet the fire-breathing Cacus. The hunters meet Shaggies, Goras and the amazing, tunnel-boring Rotary Mole on Triton, satellite of Neptune. On Almussen’s Comet, they battle the three-headed Hyclops and the intelligent, extra-Solarian Protean.
