© 1985: A stand-alone novel by David R Palmer. 1st printing of 1987 edition:- Synopsis: The girl was delightful, delicious and disarming. She was also stark naked and trespassing. The man was handsome, dynamic, wealthy. Self-made and proud of it. Used to being obeyed. The cat, which had arrived like the girl as a bolt from the blue, was overweight, short-winded, short-tempered but spoke good English. The girl fixed the man with her wide, blue, tear-filled eyes and explained her sudden and undressed appearance: "Peter, we are losing Armageddon. Only with your help do we have any chance of prevailing. Unless you join us - the galaxy is doomed". The cat backed her up:- Review(s): "Clever, knowledgeable and diabolically inventive. This may well be the space opera to end all space operas" - Spider Robinson / "Every bit as exciting, inventive and witty as 'Emergence'" - Poul Anderson:- (original cost £2.95).

Terms of sale
All books offered for sale are complete and sound (any missing / loose pages or cracked / broken spines will be mentioned in the book description). Our book-seller images are of, not just the listed edition / print, but also of the actual book you will be buying (the cover collages are made from 3 individual scans of each book that are then displayed as a wrap-around image - the books themselves are NOT damaged in any way by this process). Book sizes, where given, are to the nearest ¼". 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. We also welcome any feedback or comments that you may have as we are always trying to maintain our high levels of customer service.
