© 1985: A stand-alone novel by David R Palmer. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Handsome, successful and fabulously wealthy Peter Cory had always assumed he'd made his own good fortune - until a strangely beautiful woman from a distant world revealed the truth. An ancient alien race had secretly guided his destiny, endowing him with extraordinary abilities. Now he would be taught to use his gifts to confront a malevolent cosmic force that threatened the galaxy. But before he could complete his training, Peter was forced to survive the perils of a deadly planet, armed with only the dawning awareness of his awesome powers:- Review(s): "The best new writer since John Varley" - Spider Robinson, author of 'Mindkiller' / "Every bit as exciting, inventive and witty as 'Emergence'" - Poul Anderson / "The further you read, the better this one gets. Don't start it late at night if you have to get up in the morning" - F M Busby:- (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.
