  • The blue-painted wizard appeared and spoke to Finnian. "You let a man die today because you couldn't be bothered!" "It wasn't my business." "You think nothing in life is your business!" the wizard howled. "But I'll make it so things will be!" Finnian waited alert, ready to kill if the wizard voiced a curse, but he only looked hard and said: "From now on, as long as you stay in my land, you will aid any man or woman in need of help." That didn't sound so bad..until Finnian discovered the whole realm needed help!

  • Book IV of The Dark Is Rising. With the final battle between the Light and the Dark soon approaching, Will sets out on a quest to call for aid. Hidden within the Welsh hills is a magical harp that he must use to wake the Sleepers - six noble riders who have slept for centuries. But an illness has robbed Will of nearly all his knowledge of the Old Ones, and he is left only with a broken riddle to guide him in his task. As Will travels blindly through the hills, his journey will bring him face-to-face with the most powerful Lord of the Dark - the Grey King. The King holds the harp and Sleepers within his lands, and there has yet to be a force strong enough to tear them from his grasp...Cover art by Les Edwards.
  • Book VI of Apprentice Adept. All seems lost for the powers of good in the worlds of Phaze and Proton. Bane and Mach have been forced to co-operate with the evil Adverse Adepts who now have access to the Book of Magic and the Oracle and are gaining power by the minute. But Stile and the Blue Adept still hold the trump card - the secret powers of their grandchildren Flach and Nepe, who like their fathers Bane and Mach are able to communicate at will across the frames. One by one, the good Adepts fall into the power of the enemy until a contest is arranged between the forces of good and evil simultaneously on both frames - the prizes will be the Book of Magic and the Oracle, the keys to the balance of power in the two frames, and if the Adverse Adepts win, they will use them for their own selfish ends and impose  a cruel dictatorship on both animals and humans.

  • Kelvin of Rud V.  As soon as the vile witch Zady has grown herself a new body, Professor Devale sends her back into the frame to flush out Mouvar and the Opal - and kill everything Kelvin Knight Hackleberry holds dear.

His dragon son Horace is in love with another dragon, Ember, equally telepathic. And although his daughter Merlain doesn't know it yet, her true love, whose name is Glint, is just about to come into her life - unless Zady gets to him first. The stakes are high. The last battle is on.

But she does know that she would rather fight in the arena than be a harlot for the men who do...Cover art by Peter Jones. N.B. This is NOT a typical MZB - legend tells that she wrote it as a result of a bet with her son and in response to the Gor novels.
