THE SEEDLING STARS

Arrow SF paperback, 1972. Cover artwork by Chris Yates.

"Pantropy - total biological engineering - Adapted Man, adapted ante-natally to life on other planets: for instance Sweeney, Ganymede dweller. Selective mitotic poisoning, pinpoint X-irradiation, tectogenetic micro-surgery, competitive metabolic inhibition, together with perhaps fifty other processes produce a man no longer Man. 

And on Hydrot: colonists engineered as minute under-water organisms that yet retain something of the personalities of their earth originals. The potential of Homo Sapiens translated into other terms. Man survives by becoming non-man, a dim, racial memory of true man transmuted into a God myth. 

The galaxies seeded with adapted man-organisms."

Contains four stories designed to form an integrated whole: Seeding Program, The Thing In The Attic, Surface Tension and Watershed.

ELRIC OF MELNIBONÉ

Arrow SF paperback, 1973. Cover illustraton by Chris Yates.

"The tale of Elric, later called womanslayer; of his love for Cymoria and of the rivalry with his cousin Yyrkoon. A rivalry that was to bring the dreaming city crashing in flames, destroyed by the reavers of the young kingdoms. 

Elric, red-eyed, albino, the inheritor of waning powers, his strength precarious, sustained by arcane drugs. A hero seemingly unfit for his role. 

A story that treats of monstrous emotions and high ambitions, of sorceries and treacheries, agonies and fearful pleasures. A story that Elric was to remember only in his nightmares."
