Book III of The Planet Pirates series. These people will save the galaxy: Lunzie, who's discovered that the one good heavyworlder she has ever met isn't so good after all; Fordeliton, who is investigating the connection between the super-rich and the planet pirates, and who is dying from a mysterious slow poison; Dupaynil, who has made the mistake of pushing Sassinak too far and has been exiled; and Aygar, who is out to prove he has brains as well as heavyworlder brawn. And of course, there's Sassinak...ordered to report to FedCentral for the trial of the mutineer Tanegli. She'd been told to disarm her ship when it enters restricted space; she'd been told her crew can't have liberty or leave; and she'd been told to follow all the rules. But the only person who might be able to stop the disaster ahead has never been one to follow the rules... Cover art by Mark Harrison.

Tweedlioop: Stanley Schmidt
$15.00When the ship that brought him to Earth crashed and Tweedlioop (not his real name) was the only survivor, he found himself at the mercy of Earth and its inhabitants.

They all wanted to help him return to his people. But the U.S. Government didn't. They trapped him - to test him and to hold him hostage. They planned to trade him for the key to his people's stardrive. If his friends could not help him before the ship arrived to rescue him, it would be too late, not just for Tweedlioop but for all of Earth. Cover art by Doug Beekman. -

All over the world, quite independently, thousands of people are claiming they have been abducted by aliens. Often these people are ridiculed by the media, regarded as unblanaced by scientists and ignored by the governments that are supposed to protect them - in spite of this, they persist with their claims. Former UK Government UFO investigator Nick Pope has written the definitive book on the alien abduction mystery, delving into folklore, the contactee movement, and more modern claims that people have not just seen UFOs, but encountered extraterrestrials. He also examines the reaction of governments, and of the scientific community, as well as examining the world's most famous alien contact cases and highlighting the common threads that bind them together. Pope devotes a significant portion of the book to detailing a number of cases that he investigated personally, before drawing things together by discussing the various theories that might explain what lies behind this fascinating mystery.
