Survival to Jonnath Gri was merely a word droning incessantly in the ancient rites from mother Earth. His parents had been slaughtered by the Star Guards; his fiancee had been abducted; and now Jonath would be forced to fight in the blood-soaked arena for the amusement of the citizens of the Ten Star Complex. Weaponless and naked, he would battle the most treacherous and deadly animals found on 50 worlds…and the most advanced weaponry ever developed. Yet he had one last hope his captors never reckoned on – the will for revenge!
Greyland
It was an alien world of infinite peace…or was it? <P> He awoke as from some misty, prolonged, vaguely disturbing dream, yet somehow he knew that what had happened and what was happening had a strange reality. It was not the kind of reality his disciplined mind would have accepted in the past, though his consciousness rejected the concept of present and past. This reality seemed to exist outside thought and apart from emotion. <P> There was the lingering physical sensation of having traveled infinite distances through unimaginable dimensions. There was, too, the sense of unthreatening mystery, of soft, overpowering greyness. This total greyness meant limitless peace, he seemed to know. <P> He knew his name. He spoke it aloud. The beautiful girl bending over him repeated it. Her skin was grey…
Starmind
Benjy Tyler…idiot mind in a beautiful body. Jailyn Rose…one very rich, and very clever, woman. Joe Winslow, multi-wave expert – caretaker and attendant on Asteroid 770. Whether they know it or not, these three are linked – and in a way no humans have ever been before. Only time will tell whether the link destroys them…
The Wailing Asteroid
The first sounds came at midnight – a plaintive scream from an unknown voice in the vastness of space. Within hours the entire world heard the eerie throbbing. And in billions of earthbound minds the horror grew. Hours later, to the ears of a helpless world, the second message came…Earth's days were numbered. A horrifying epic science fiction novel!

Trojan Orbit
Island One, the U.S.'s first space colony and symbol of an American Renaissance, is in trouble. Low morale, shoddy workmanship, unexplained malfunctions, and avoidable accidents have become a way of life, and nobody seems to know why. Is in the Russians? Home-grown anti-technologists? Arabs afraid of cheap solar power from Space – or something even more sinister? <P> When the President ordered secret agent Peter Kapitz to find out what was going on, Peter's first discovery is that the Russians are indeed involved. His second is that they are not alone. He will probably not live to make a third.
Deathwish World
Life under a Deathwish policy was fun while it lasted, but for Deathwisher Roy Cox it was far more than that. For him, gaining access to great wealth in exchange for becoming a target for hired killers was a political act: you can buy a lot of media attention with a million pseudobucks, and Roy had a cause worth dying for. <P> Already Roy has survived twice the term of the average Deathwisher, and people are getting interested in what he has to say. That why Worldgov has labeled him a Special Case and put Mercenaries Inc. on his trail. No matter how smart and tough he may be, no matter how just his cause, even flight to High Orbit can't save Roy now…
The Other Time
A step in an odd direction – a moment of dizziness – and archaeologist Dan Fielding was thrust through an invisible barrier found hundred years into the past. He was still in the Mexican desert – but it was the desert of the 16th century, and Mexico was in the grip of the conquistador Hernando Cortez. <P> Inevitably, Cortez captured Fielding – and learned of the rich territory north of the Rio Grande. The land that would one day become the U.S. would be his next conquest. Unless Fielding could rally the Indians and erase Cortez's bloody footsteps from the New World forever!
Secret of the Red Spot
May 23, 2440 A.D. Around Jay Bruce's spaceship, the sky is an impenetrable blanked of opaque gas, typical of this region on Jupiter just north of the Red Spot. Bruce is puzzled. Why has the lovely young woman seated next to him chartered his ship to cruise an uninhabited area? Then it appears…a massive Martian warship unlike any he's ever seen before, forcing him to land – and perhaps to die – in the barren Jovian wilderness!
Menace of the Saucers
Smith was a writer of science fiction stories. Now, incredibly, he was witnessing the real thing.

Then, as Smith watched, another saucer appeared in the sky – and the dogfight began! The saucers – aliens from beyond known space – were battling for control of the Earth. Something had to be done, even if Smith had no idea what it should be. The trouble was – no one believed him!
