Planet of Mystery - Terry Bisson

Planet of Mystery is an instant Bisson classic that takes place on the border between appearance and reality. Here’s the jacket blurb:

Marooned on Venus, Hall and Chang of the first Chinese-American expedition are surprised to find themselves breathing Earth-normal air; and alarmed to find themselves captured by beautiful amazons mounted on foul-smelling centaurs.
