The Timeless Ones

by Patricia Fanthorpe Lionel Fanthorpe Pel Torro

Tharnos, assistant to the High Priest of the Holy Mysteries at Karnak was disturbed when strange alternation appeared in the ritual. Was it Kakos the silent High Priest who was introducing these dark ceremonies....? If not was there a presence from Beyond lurking in the shadows of the great temple? A dying slave warned Tharnos of the plot that was being launched against him . . . Too late! There were other victims waiting in the secret cells below the temple; a retired Roman Centurion; a giant Nubian; a Greek mariner with the cunning of Odysseus. Only the sacred Temple Virgin could help them to escape. If she would help them, there was a slim chance that the Dark Powers could be held in check.... If not... the world was threatened with an Aeon of darkness such as it had never witnessed before.

The Tin Angel

by Ron Goulart

Start with some medical transplants, add a dash of cybernetic engineering, and a talking dog can be a commonplace. But, Bowser was no commonplace--he was the top rated star of 1999's television--comedian, commentator, actor and temperamental headache of his media masters. But, he was still a dog--man's best friend to the vast gaping audience of watchers, and a cur, mutt and a son of a five letter word to Bert Schenley, his agent and guardian. So, when Bert got two assignments at once, both taking him and Bowser to the battle front in Lower California, where the various guerillas and rebels were making news, history and hysterics, it was the climax. Bowser was determined to keep on grabbing the headlines. Bert was determined to keep a grip on his own life, and the rest were equally set on blotting both out. But don't worry, it is all in good fun (at least the satirical good fun style of Ron Goulart) and has the required Hollywood ending.

This secret government organization enforces the laws of Libertas, killing anyone who threatens the tenuous peace within the country. Liane&’s only human contact comes in the form of her Handler, Damian, who demands perfect obedience from her and desires for them to be far more than Agent and Handler.
