FIRST TIME IN PRINT ANYWHERE!

After a century of warfare, humanity finally discovered the Achilles heel of the Ryall, their xenophobic reptilian foe.  Spica – Alpha Virginis – is the key star system in enemy space.  It is the hub through which all Ryall starships must pass, and if humanity can only capture and hold it, they will strangle the Ryall war machine and end their threat to humankind forever.

It all seemed so simple in the computer simulations: Advance by stealth, attack without warning, strike swiftly with overwhelming power.  Unfortunately, conquering the Ryall proves the easy part.  With the key to victory in hand, Richard and Bethany Drake discover that they must also conquer human nature if they are to bring down the alien foe …

It is the 24th Century and humanity is just gaining a toehold out among the stars. Stellar Survey Starship Magellan is exploring the New Eden system when they encounter two alien spacecraft.  When the encounter is over, the score is one human scout ship and one alien aggressor destroyed.  In exploring the wreck of the second alien ship, spacers discover a survivor with a fantastic story.

The alien comes from a million-star Galactic Empire ruled over by a mysterious race known as the Broa. These overlords are the masters of this region of the galaxy and they allow no competitors.  This news presents Earth’s rulers with a problem.  As yet, the Broa are ignorant of humanity’s existence.  Does the human race retreat to its one small world, quaking in fear that the Broa will eventually discover Earth?  Or do they take a more aggressive approach?

Whatever they do, they must do it quickly!  Time is running out for the human race...

When the supergiant star Antares exploded in 2512, the human colony on Alta found their pathway to the stars gone, isolating them from the rest of human space for more than a century. Then one day, a powerful warship materialized in the system without warning. Alarmed by the sudden appearance of such behemoth, the commanders of the Altan Space Navy dispatched one of their most powerful ships to investigate. What ASNS Discovery finds when they finally catch the intruder is a battered hulk manned by a dead crew.

That is disturbing news for the Altans. For the dead battleship could easily have defeated the whole of the Altan navy. If it could find Alta, then so could whoever it was that beat it. Something would have to be done. ...

A Discovery Of Major Impact ...

The new comet found near Jupiter was an incredible treasure trove of water-ice and rock. Immediately, the water-starved Luna Republic and Sierra Corporation, a leader in asteroid mining, were squabbling over rights to the new resource. But all thoughts of profit and fame were abandoned when a scientific expedition discovered that the comet's trajectory placed it on a collision course with Earth!

As scientists struggled to find a way to alter the comet's course, world leaders tried desperately to restrain mass panic, and two lovers quarreled over the direction the comet was to take, all Earth waited to see if humanity had any future at all ...

When the sun flared out of control and boiled Earth's oceans, humanity took refuge in a place that few would have predicted.  In the greatest migration in history, the entire human race took up residence among the towering clouds and deep clear-air canyons of Saturn's upper atmosphere.  Having survived the traitor star, they returned to the all-too-human tradition of internecine strife.  The new city-states of Saturn began to resemble those of ancient Greece, with one group of cities taking on the role of militaristic Sparta ...

Starhopper was humanity's first interstellar probe.   It was designed to search for intelligent life beyond the solar system.   Before it could be launched, however, intelligent life found Earth.  The discovery of an alien light sail inbound at the edge of the solar system generated considerable excitement in scientific circles.  With the interstellar probe nearing completion, it gave scientists the opportunity to launch an expedition to meet the aliens while they were still in space. The second surprise came when Starhopper's crew boarded the alien craft.  They found beings who, despite their alien physiques, were surprisingly compatible with humans.  That two species so similar could have evolved a mere twelve light years from one another seemed too coincidental to be true.

One human being soon discovered that coincidence had nothing to do with it ...

Duncan MacElroy was an ordinary engineering student before he went out for a six-pack of beer one night and never came back.  Instead, he found himself embroiled in a war for the dominance of Paratime, as well as defending our own particular version of Earth from predators on both sides of the battle lines.  For he quickly discovered that "parallel universes" aren't, and that a single individual can make all of the difference in the worlds!
