Paperback. Condition: new. Wirth, A (illustrator). Paperback. Marine hovercraft gunner Zack Lynton is pulled from the front lines and granted emergency leave to return to his home planet and settle affairs after the sudden and mysterious death of Marvin Pangbourne, his uncle and sole-remaining relative. Uncle Marv managed to squander most of his late wife's fortune dabbling in antiquities but he does leave Zack the Capri, a somewhat modified, fifty-year-old spaceship. In an effort to salvage something from the financial wreckage his uncle left behind, Zack hires a pilot and heads to the Central Planets intending to sell the ship. He immediately falls headlong into the tangled nest of affairs that led to his uncle's murder. The source of the trouble seems to be an artifact that Marv had recently purchased -- a small, unassuming pyramid supposedly taken from somewhere in the infamous Sol System, one of the most dangerous places in all Human space. On route to the Central Planets, Zack's pilot turns out to be more than just a pilot and he finds out that some extremely ruthless people, including the Soviets and a shadowy, unknown foreign government, are obsessed with Marv's artifact and will stop at nothing to get it. In the meantime, three percent of the human race is having periodic and very disturbing dreams concerning the future of all Mankind. Could Marv's artifact be involved somehow? As matters spin out of control, Zack is ordered to provide protection for an archeological expedition headed into the lawless wasteland of the Sol System in search of the artifact's origin and true purpose.

Paperback. Condition: new. Wirth, Angie (illustrator). Paperback. The purpose of the ancient, enigmatic Deimos Artifact has been discovered - the small, tetrahedron-shaped construct is Humanity's key to access the giant Galactic Sentinel Network.Activation of their Sentinel signaling device presents Mankind with an unprecedented opportunity - an invitation to join the Grand Amalgamation of Galactic Civilizations, an interstellar organization representing over five-hundred different intelligent species.Citizenship requirements are simple: Humanity needs to establish a peaceful relationship with their closest galactic neighbors, the Hordea, a peculiar race of intelligent plants.And they have to put a stop to the endless internal wars which have plagued the species since inception.The downside? Failure to achieve citizenship places Mankind at the mercy of the Custodians, a brutal and ruthless Amalgamation archrival, who've already enslaved over a hundred "undesirable" species.Attempting to fulfil the Amalgamation's membership requirements, Zack, Ariane, and the rest of the Deimos expedition must voyage to the far reaches of Human space, including a perilous foray down to the surface of the ravaged and lawless planet Earth itself.Opposing them at every step are the Custodians who, with the assistance of greedy, traitorous Humans, are covertly doing all in their power to ensure Humanity's bid for citizenship will end in failure.In the meantime, there is compelling evidence that another ancient artifact awaits discovery.

Paperback. Condition: new. Wirth, Angie (illustrator). Paperback. THE 'JUNKYARD DOGS' ADVENTURES CONTINUE.Something is seriously wrong in the Santana Quadrant. One by one, remote outposts are failing to check in and communications are going off line.Tensions are at a fever pitch; military forces are mobilizing for war.An old, battle-damaged Veritian Cruiser with a mysterious past, abandoned years ago on a tiny moon in the middle of nowhere, suddenly takes on a sinister new importance--suspected terrorists are salvaging powerful weapons from the derelict. In the midst of all this turmoil, Lieutenant Ryan Harris, Commander Oskar Kresge and Engineer Angus Hawkins have just received new orders: The United Terran Federation Naval Reclamation Center--a huge, orbiting spaceship junkyard located in a remote corner of Federation space--must be made operational again. Victim of a recent terrorist attack that destroyed all of the living facilities, the 'Scrapyard' is loaded with valuable warship parts that have suddenly become vital to the Federation war effort.Meanwhile, Ensign Tamara Carlisle, a brilliant, beautiful but decidedly quirky young officer has just finished her doctorate in Military History. Not sure how to make the best use of their somewhat flawed genius, the Federation Navy places her on a make or break assignment--she is to be the diplomatic liaison to the new Meridian Ambassador.Ensign Carlisle and the Ambassador, after a narrow escape from a savage surprise attack on the Federation Navy's quadrant headquarters, flee to the Scrapyard--the only safe harbor they can think of--there they are reunited with their friends from the Scrapyard but quickly discover their refuge is to be only temporary.All too soon, these improbable and virtually unarmed allies discover that terrorists are massing their forces for an all-out attack on the Scrapyard, now the last remaining Federation outpost in the entire Quadrant! Completely on their own, this diverse conglomeration of 'Junkyard Dogs' must cobble together some kind of defense against the new threat or face annihilation.The future of the entire Santana Quadrant hangs in the balance.
