STARMASTERS’ GAMBIT: He was thirty-two years old. His name was Jerg Algan. He had done little but kill time on Earth, with no purpose. Then, one day, he was forced to leave the cradle of humanity and travel to the furthest reaches of space, to a strange planet where lay vast black citadels, like gigantic chess pieces erected on the squares of an unimaginable board… And Jerg Algan embarked upon the final phase of his journey: the starmasters’ gambit…
THE DAY BEFORE TOMORROW: The Federation considered itself a Utopia; the worlds under its sway were guaranteed stability by virtue of the time-changers. For whenever a historian located evidence in the past that a newfound planet might evolve into a threat, a team would be sent to tamper with its history. But the seven men that went to Ygone encountered a fate no one had ever projected. They met with a strangely peaceful culture they could not fathom…
THE MOTE IN TIME’S EYE: 20,000 years in the future, a ship from the human colonies of the Lesser Magellanic Clouds accidentally falls into a time trap set up by two unimaginably powerful rival empires from millions of years in the future. The ship is thrown back 200 million years into the past. Will its Captain, the heroic Varun Shangrin, succeed in returning to his own time? And how did the accident affect the time war between the two shadowy cosmic combatants?
