All over the world there are fantastic ruins and improbable objects which cannot be explained by any conventional means or theories. The sacred books of many faiths have descriptions of Gods who came down from the sky in fiery chariots and who always promised to return - and an ancient Sanskrit text contains what could only be a description of a journey in a space-ship complete with a graphic description of the force of gravity. What explanation can be offered for a huge block of stone weighing 20,000 tons the size of a four storey house complete with steps, ramps and decorations - and what force turned it upside down? Illustrated with black and white photographs.

That was why the IPR teams working throughout the galaxy operated in secret, mingling with the unsuspecting natives in their efforts to bring democracy to the humanoid worlds.

Despite a frightening lack of knowledge, a price on his head and treason in his own ranks, Forzon fought his own unconventional way to a solution that resulted in a revolution.

Omnibus volume: Santiago and The Return Of Santiago. Bandit, outlaw, known to all, seen by none, has he killed a thousand men? Murderer, madman, myth...Hiis legend as as great as the Galactic Rim itself, his trail as elusive as starlight in the great empty realms of space. Rewards have been posted on half a million worlds. His name is...Santiago. They hunt for him on the Galactic Rim, at the very edge of the Outer Frontier, where traders, miners, outlaws and misfits touch down on outpost worlds. They chase him at the Inner Frontier, towards the core of the galaxy where the stars press so close together that night is as bright as day. They are bounty hunters, like Giles Sans Pitié, of the hard heart and steel fist; Sebastian Nightingale Cain, a disillusioned revolutionary turned professional killer; and the deadliest of the them all, the Angel. They are journalists, like Virtie MacKenzie, who will stoop to any means, including blackmail and murder, to get her story. They are connoisseurs of fine art, like the Jolly Swagman, who wants a few pieces said to be held by Santiago. They are poets and preachers, bandits and pundits, magnates and madmen, aliens and cyborgs - and they all want a piece of Santiago. And a merry chase it is. But just wait till they catch him! For Santiago is much more - and less - than they think. And a hundred years on, when a cunning burglar named Danny Briggs finds a long lost manuscript, Santiago will ride again...
