Andre Norton & Lyn McConchie · 5 novels · 1959–2006
Andre Norton's Beast Master series follows Hosteen Storm, a Navajo veteran of an interstellar war who resettles an alien frontier world with a team of specially trained animals bonded to him by touch-telepathy. The original novels came from Norton in the late 1950s-60s; Lyn McConchie added further installments decades later, extending Storm's story on the frontier planet Arzor. It's frontier-adventure science fiction built around an unusual human-animal partnership.
