© 1996: 1st in the 'Night's Dawn' series of books. Unknown publication date. 15th printing of 1997 edition:- Synopsis: A nightmare with no end? In AD 2600 the human race is finally beginning to realize its full potential. Hundreds of colonized planets scattered across the galaxy host a multitude of prosperous and wildly diverse cultures. Genetic engineering has pushed evolution far beyond nature's boundaries, defeating disease and producing extraordinary spaceborn creatures. Huge fleets of sentient trader starships thrive on the wealth created by the industrialization of entire star systems. And throughout inhabited space the Confederation Navy keeps the peace. A true golden age is within our grasp. But now something has gone catastrophically wrong. On a primitive colony planet a renegade criminal's chance encounter with an utterly alien entity unleashes the most primal of all our fears. An extinct race which inhabited the galaxy aeons ago called it 'The Reality Dysfunction'. It is the nightmare which has prowled beside us since the beginning of history:- Review(s): "This is an intergalactic adventure story laced with ironies, insights and held together by a transcending central plot: absolutely vintage science-fiction. Hamilton puts British sci-fi back into interstellar overdrive" - The Times / "Eloquent and ingenious. A host of believable characters deploy amid rich descriptions of worlds and living starships. It all hangs together compulsively" - Daily Telegraph:- (original cost £8.99).…

Each book has then been graded according to its condition, taking into account the degree of creasing to the covers and/or spine, presence of scuff marks or tears, any pen marks or inscriptions & any page tanning. We try to be as fair & accurate as possible with the grading of our books, but if you are unhappy with any classification of condition please let us know as soon as possible. If, for any reason at all, you are unhappy with your purchase, we offer a no quibble, money back guarantee within 30 days of purchase.
