MAN OF TWO WORLDS

Pyramid paperback, 1963. Cover painting by John Schoenherr.

"CALL ME KETAN! 

Like all my companions in Kronweld I emerged full-grown from the temple of birth. My needs, my wishes, my passions were coldly filed in the perforated transparencies that constitute the integrated will of Kronweld.

But I alone harbor curiosity about our past. I alone know the Bors of dark land and how they are born. I alone have discovered the hidden secret of our birth...And have heard the groaning fertility prisoners of the other world. Here is their message: 

"if any of you live, come through to us. Save us. Bring weapons!" 

I am going to them now, I do not know whether I will ever return from the great edge..."

FAR OUT

"A WORLD BEYOND TIME AND SPACE 

In these brilliant stories, Damon Knight takes you on a dazzling tour of the outer galaxies of the imagination:

The occasion when an alien race send two representatives to the United Nations. 

The meeting of two lovers whose only problem is that they are the only people left on Earth. 

The moment when an unborn child begins to communicate with its parents. 

Improbable? Not when the stories are written with the astonishing wit, the incredible logic and the surprising twists you have come to expect from this master of adult science fiction."

EARTHWORKS

Four Square paperback, 1967. Cover artwork by Karel Thole.

"Disease-ridden, overpopulated; robots and prison-gangs tending the bare, poison-drenched countryside; the people near starvation. This is the world Knowie Noland, ex-convict, ex-traveller, and captain of the tramp freighter trieste star knows and accepts - because there is nothing better to hope for. 

To the beautiful girl named Justine it is a degrading and inhuman condition which can be overcome by global war - a war she wants knowie to start. 

Knowie has always believed that war was a futile and senseless answer to man's problems. But under Justine's persuasive logic he begins to hope that a shot he can fire will lead to the ultimate death of millions and be the start of a better world for the survivors."

As a U.N. narcotics security agent, he investigates the case of a girl addicted to a drug which enables her to teleport objects.

CLONE

Pan Science Fiction paperback, 1981. Cover by Ian Pollock.

"Alvin isn't very clever and his ears stick out. But despite all that, he's a very important person. Or rather, a very important quarter of a person. Or even four people. It's all very confusing being a clone...

Will Norbert the Chimpanzee, Alvin's valuable friend and advisor, and the lesbian professor poynter find him before they do? Or will Alvin discover his powers and, in between dreaming about the luscious Cheryl, spread his wings a little deep beneath Pall Mall...?"
