WHAT HAPPENED TO EMILY GOODE AFTER THE GREAT EXHIBITION
by Raylyn Moore. A lady always behaves like a lady even when she finds herself in a
strange (and rather vulgar) new world with only her breeding and her pocket money
for resources. It was only momentary panic that made her stab the policeman, and
she certainly hadn't intended to become a Federal case An enthralling time
travel story, offbeat even for science fiction, by an eminent fantasy scholar, new to
our field, but sure to become as familiar as she is welcome. #1, #4.95, April, 1978.

SOME WILL NOT DIE by Algis Budrys. Grim, but hopeful: ruthlessly logical,
deeply, perceptively, human: a story of the birth of a new civilization in the death of
the old, as those left alive—one in ten—fight each other for mere survival. Then
comes Berendtsen, with a simple solution: join me—or die. Now. Too long out of
print, a superb and meticulously crafted story by one of science fiction's finest
writers. #2, #4.95, April, 1978. 0-915442-52-3
CONFEDERATION MATADOR by J.F. Bone. An intensely proud civilization
defeated by aliens so superior as to consider humans barely better than ants: a
torero who is both a starfleet officer and an agent of the inevitable resistance: and
the infinite patience of an incredibly beautiful woman.. .all add up to a
worldshakingly explosive situation in this latest novel by one of science fiction's old
masters. #3, $4.95, April, 1978. 0-915442-53-1
ANOTHER FINE MYTH.. .by Robert Asprin. It's tough for a self-respecting
thief to have to apprentice himself to a magician. It's worse when the boss kicks off,
leaving you stuck with a shortcircuited dimension-Jumper. Add a slightly addled
demon-hunter, a couple of inept imps, a thoroughly unreluctant dragon, and a belly
dancer of similar nature—and life begins to be a trifle complex! A delightful fantasy
by one of the field's brightest new talents. #4, $4.95, April, 1978. 0-915442-54-X
