  • Berserker III. It is said they came five centuries ago, wreaking destruction upon the galaxy, sterilising planets and laying waste to solar systems. They were the unliving aliens who programme was to expunge the universe of all living matter - they were the berserkers, death-bringers from deep space...Then Karlsen, the demi-god, turned back the onslaught, forcing them out of the known universe - all except one shell-less brain, which lay festering in a small corner of the galaxy, awaiting the rebirth of civilisation which it would then enslave...Cover art by Peter Jones.

  • Book I of Taken. Marcus Walker was just another young commodities trader in Chicago - until he was attacked and tossed aboard a starship bound for deep space. Instead of being a rich hotshot at the top of the food chain, Walker discovers he’s just another amusing novelty, part of a cargo of “cute” aliens from primitive planets - destined to be sold as pets to highly advanced populations in “civilised” regions of the galaxy. Another man might resign himself to the inevitable and hope to be sold to a kindly owner, but not Walker. This former college football star has plenty of American ingenuity and no intention of admitting defeat, now or ever. In fact, he’s only just begun to fight. Cover art by David Stevenson.
  • Book IV of Tomorrow, When The War Began. Five months into World War III, Ellie and her four remaining friends have barely escaped the Australian town of Wirrawee with their lives and their sanity intact. But as the next step becomes clear, they realize they must once again sacrifice their hard-won comfort and safety. A group of soldiers has recruited the kids to guide the way to the Wirrawee air base. What could possibly motivate Ellie and her friends to return? This risky sabotage mission may be their only hope of rescuing their families, too.
  • Muphormosy, a disease not unlike leprosy, has ravaged the natives on the planet Tezcatl. They have reached a state of utter deprivation, condemned to a life of hideous poverty and degradation by the colonists from Earth. Descendants of the first settlers fall prey to the deformityand they are permanently isolated from society as incurables. Or so Lucian Yeardance believes. Assigned to duty as komissar of the Sancorage complex he is moved by pity to take up the muphormer’s cause – unaware that in doing so he is binding himself irrevocably to the fate of the ravaged outcasts. As he is initiated into the laws of these strange and solitaary people, he slowly realises the truth about their barbaric beliefs – a truth no civilised being could bear to know…
  • Nothing much is going right for Fred Wagner. He's bored with writing advertising copy for loofah mitts, and Babe's left him. Pushed around at work, deserted by his wife, and admonished by his sister, doomed to a life of celibacy and tedium, Fred's feeling practically invisible and wills himself physically invisible whenever he feels like it -  with results both pathetic and hilarious!
  • Cocoon....Who can forget the boatload of senior citizens who dared to find a new life in the stars,  whisked away by the kindly aliens five years earlier?  Now they are returning to Earth for a visit.  They are looking forward to catching up with friends and family, and to assist in the retrieval of the Antarean cocoons that sill remain on the ocean floor. But when they return to Earth, time starts running again...
  • In the year 2450, humanity is scattered among the stars, which teem with intelligent life.  Earth has been destroyed 200 years before and all Earthmen are exiles.  The world of Hydros has practically no landmass, only a great globe-encompassing ocean with occasional tiny islands. One life form there, a bi-pedal humanoid, has created floating islands from sea-borne material. An assortment of Earthmen have come to Hydros - for them it is a world of no return, having no outward bound space transportation.  They travel the planet's endless oceans in search of the mysterious area from which no human has ever returned - the Face of the Waters.
