Doona was a pastoral planet, a paradise of rivers, lakes, mountains and seas.  The Hrubbans need Doona to revitalise their decadent race, to give them some of the pioneer spirit...But the Terrans also need Doona as an overspill from the crowded Earth.  So both races send a colonising party and both begin to think of Doona at home.  It's inevitable - one day the smooth skinned bi-ped mammal known as Man will come face to face with the furry, four-pawed mammal known as Hrubban...

  • Book III of Tarot. On far Tarot dreams come true--and fanged nightmares stalk the land.

  • Two time-travellers from the 27th century go missing in Ancient Egypt. Edward Davis, a promising rookie in the Time Service is sent back to find them...back much further than he has ever been before. Reeling from the time-jump, he arrives in Thebes only to find his survival training  is no protection against the intoxicating magic of Egypt: Pyramids and obelisks; snakes with legs; winking sphinxes; birds with the heads of women and women with the heads of birds; forests of huge stone columns; lapis lazuli and gold and a plump Pharaoh on his throne. Davis has thirty days in which to get a grip and find the missing time travellers. Instead, he's taken in by a temple priestess, befriended by a beautiful slave girl and tricked into crossing the Nile to to the City of the Dead. As the scheduled hour of his rendezvous with the time field approaches, Davis is faced with the truth behind the fate of his former colleagues and the prospect of sharing that fate. Cover art by Fred Gambino.
  • Book III of The Cineverse Cycle. Roger Gordon, lately of Earth - his passion for old movies matched only by his passion for the delectable Delores - has been appointed to lead the forces of good in a last ditch effort to rid the many cinematic worlds of the Cineverse of the evil of Doctor Dread.  The change is happening - war movies intertwine with drawing room comedies, art films with westerns, film noir mysteries with Italian sword and sandal epics.  The arch fiend Doctor Dread - whose desire for total destruction is matched only by his lack of good taste - is hastening the process with the help of Big Bertha, Menge the Merciless and Mother Antoinette, Mistress of Evil (and Roger's mother.)  Can Roger polish his aphorisms in time to control the changing environment and confront the Plotmaster?

  • Volume IV of  The Tower and the Hive. The survival technique of the Hivers was terrifying and brilliant.  Their huge Sphere Ships controlled by the Many Mind of ten to sixteen queens, surged out into space.  When an appropriate planet was found, the Hivers destroyed all  indigenous life, the queens propagated and when the new world was full, the ships were sent out again and again until no planet or species was safe.  But the furry and brave Mrdini race had fought the Hivers for centuries and they now combined with Man to form the Alliance.  Man brought the power and might of the Talents and the four children of Damia, Primes among the Talents, are desperately needed. Cover art by Romas Kukalis.
  • Book II of The Talent. Earth was at bursting point - desperately overcrowded in spite of the birth restrictions of one child per couple. Extra children existed in a  sub-cultured world or were rounded up into slavery. The only hope was the space platform - the jumping off point for the colonisation of other worlds. And to build the space platforms more 'Talents' were needed - the special, gifted ones whose mental powers could perform prodigious tasks across space and time. Rhyssa Owen, Director for Parapsychic talents, was the one responsible both for finding 'Talents' and training them. And when she felt the first tentative, sad encroachment of a mind reaching out to her, she knew it was exceptional - a fourteen year old boy, his body crushed beyond repair, with the most powerful kinetic ability she had ever encountered. And at the same time, in the seamy world of forgotten, unwanted, near-criminal children, was another brilliant mind - young, street-wise but so Talented she was in danger from a ruthless gang of kidnappers. Rhyssa knew she had to find both children and train them for the survival of Earth. Cover art by Paul Damon. https://cosmiccauldronbooks.com.au/p/pegasus-space-anne-mccaffrey/
