| Summary | "The Wealth of Echindul" by Noel M. Loomis is a science fiction novel written in the early 1950s. The story follows Grant Russell, a small and determined prospector who embarks on a perilous journey across the dangerous Great Sea-Swamp of Venus in search of valuable echindul stones. The setting explores themes of survival, greed, and the struggle against oppressive forces in a vividly imagined extraterrestrial environment. The plot revolves around Grant Russell's arduous trek through the treacherous swamps of Venus after successfully locating a nest of the mythical echindul, known for its precious gizzard-stones. As Russell makes his way toward Aphrodite, a city marked by vice and danger, he must navigate the treacherous landscape while evading Relegar, a cunning and ruthless Uranian who seeks to claim the stones for himself. With both a personal mission to reunite with his daughter and the hope of securing a future for them, Russell relies on his intelligence and resourcefulness to outsmart Relegar and survive the myriad threats of Venus, ultimately leading to a tense confrontation that could determine his fate and that of his newfound fortune.
