U.F.O. 517
by Patricia Fanthorpe Lionel Fanthorpe Bron FaneInnumerable explanations have been put forward for the phenomena, known popularly as U.F.O'S and Flying Saucers. Eminent psychologists explain them as purely mental phantasmagoria - symptomatic of mankind's age-old desire for "saviours from the sky".Enthusiastic arm-chair cosmonauts regard them as irrefutable proof that super intelligences from Out There are watching the Earth. A few un-scrupulous publicity seekers and practical jokers cash in on the public's curiosity and weird stories of little green men and pink ants go the rounds.Amateur military tacticians decide that the saucers are either out new secret weapons or the experimental weapons of some alien power.Interest rises and falls. The Great Debate continues.There are some other possibilities . . . and the implications of some are so horrifying that mere monsters from Beyond would be a pleasant anti-climax. This mature, challenging novel is not recommended for those who like to think of the everyday world in terms of permanence and security with humanity safely established at the head of creation.Elspeth Jermyn came dangerously close to the truth, and slowly but surely gathered a small group of helpers together. They worked in strictest secrecy against the Saucer Phenomena and the invidious menace behind it . . . if they failed, life would have no real meaning.

UNkind
by Stephen J. StonehamIt is 2062 and the world is unified under a UN agency that is charged with initiating a programme to ensure the continued betterment of mankind. It is referred to as The Authority by its adherents and "UNkind" by its detractors. Its chief scientist has discovered a source of clean, renewable energy - meta-molecular energy - that is powering model cities for all peoples of the world, bringing a level of prosperity hitherto only dreamed of. But the research that created this meta-molecular energy has also created a benefit only the wealthy can afford - de-senescence, an ability to turn off the ageing algorithm in human genes. The world under the UN is in fact an increasingly divided world. A global referendum is to be held to decide the future of meta-molecular energy. The Authority seeks to ensure a favourable referendum result while its nemesis, The Apostacy, seeks to undermine the referendum, The Authority and its chief scientist, Professor Michael Brensinsky. The women who surround Brensinsky have their own designs in a world where gender is undergoing necessary recalibration. The world of UNkind is a world of sordid power politics where sex is a weapon and trust an anachronism. The book is a hybrid sci-fi, detective and dystopian story immersed in erotic fiction. It is set predominantly in Sydney, with key scenes played out around iconic Manly.
