Dag Fletcher's first trip back with European Space was not going well. His six year military stint with I.G.O. had taught him that there were no simple missions. This just confirmed it. It was supposed to have been a straight-forward freight run--to get him back into the swing of things. And he wasn't...

F. S. Hartley was making the best of a bad job. The rebuilding programme at his school was drawing on all his skills in crisis management. Today, the digger had just cut the main power line--again, the School Inspector was threatening the whole future with talk of 'comprehensive education' and 'mergers'...

A man does not step into the same river twice. He never goes through the same door. To Kurt Yardley, this is amply borne out by the train of circumstance which follows the forced landing of his freighter Charib on the bleakly inhospitable plains of an unlisted planet. Life has evolved without a familiar...

Sam Shepherd, minding his own business, with his car locked on the freeway safety strip, was a surprised man when he saw Jean Quale draped like a wet sack over a five barred gate. Stopping to check out what she was up to, put his feet on a path littered with uncertainty. He was hooked to a sequence...

To Prosper Kanes the resurrection of interest in the Weisman Experiment, long suppressed officially by the Federal Government, was merely a whim of the Chairman--a routine chore of investigation in the memory banks of his computer. As a Professional Grade 4 citizen he was not expected to question...

Caster was a typical city of the age. Its people were inoculated every year with U4--a drug which prevented them from asking the questions which ought to be asked. Clint Pearson had worked out a system for missing the inoculation. Only he knew that things were badly wrong. Somehow they had to make...

After near bisection at the delicate hand of his ex-girlfriend and an all-stations call from the head of his own security unit labelling him an outlaw, Mark Chevron was a two-time loser. But despite everyone and everything being against him, he did have a tenuous line on the biggest operation ever...

Robert Cain had no idea why he had been sent to enrol at Picton Polytech, but when a blue and yellow auto car dropped eight feet and nearly crushed him out of existence, he knew there was more to it than just a crash course in The Science of Mental Life for which he was registered. Who was trying...

Seen from far enough off, a shanty town of flattened kerosene tins and mud daub can appear like some glittering Shangri-la.  An observer at the Met Station of Earth's moon, if there was any hardy soul still batting on that ash heap, would see the sprawling, wheel satellite as the last triumph...

When the Roman peace was a memory and the Conqueror's peace a distant murmur, the land was in limbo. There was an uneasy calm and the jackals were in. It was a waiting time, with a swirl of undercurrents and secret power moves. There was space enough, as ever, for a man and a woman to make a life....

Kalais had his day carefully planned out. For once, he was determined not to let any distractions get in the way. Everything was going well, until a girl appeared on Lupercal's link platform. First impressions were all good; she was beautiful, liked trees, plants, seemed to like him. Although, for...

The Kronos Factor. Cappella knew something didn't quite add up the second she opened Ion's invitation for a 'chat'. Despite all the warnings, she decided to accept. It was clear this meeting wasn't going to be easy, she had even prepared herself for a full-scale row. But from the moment she arrived,...

Nothing much had happened in the five years since the war with Chaos. They had won, just, but their homeworld had been the price--placed into stasis to prevent any repetition.
