# Catalog Note

"A Woman Called Eterna," by Curtis Garland, science fiction pulp serial. Karr Vulkan, a young miner-turned-wealthy spaceman returning home after years laboring in the koprinto mines of distant asteroids, stops at a spaceport cantina en route to his native planet, hoping to reunite with his beloved Zara. A prostitute named Dania seduces him, offering her services without payment. After their encounter, she drugs him with poisoned wine. Two men in black arrive and collect the unconscious Karr—revealed to be part of human trafficking operation. Dania receives two hundred thousand credits for delivering him. The captors reference a mysterious "patrón" (boss) whose methods of control make rebellion impossible. The narrative depicts interplanetary commerce, diverse alien species coexisting in galactic federation ports, and an elaborate criminal abduction scheme.
