038 - Anne McCaffrey - Velvet Fields (1973)

Anne McCaffrey's short story was first published in Worlds of If in 1973. I read it on the Lightspeed Magazine website, reprinted in 2011.

Velvet Fields tells the story of human colonists moving onto an alien world and the unintended consquences of this colonisation.
