If you are unfamiliar with him, look up a writer named Poul Anderson. He specialized in creating ‘strange new worlds’ and populated them with all sorts of great characters. “War Of The Wingmen” is a good novel to start with.

Don’t discount practical effects. Watch “The Thing” or “American Werewolf in London” if you don’t believe me.
