They nearly overwhelmed mankind on first contact, but fast as you can say 'Ghenghis Khan' of 'Alexander the Great' te seemingly harmless humans had the felines on the run, with space fleets and strategic thinking that left the Warrior Race quite dazzled.

Book Club Edition. © 1987: 1st in the 'Heorot' series of books. 1st printing of 1987 edition:- Synopsis: The island of Avalon, on the fourth planet of Tau Ceti, is home for the first party of human colonists to venture forth from the Solar System. And an idyllic place it is too, free of the monstrous creatures which roam the planet's continents. Crops flourish, the local fauna are not only edible but delicious, the climate is favourable. The colony quickly settles into an easy-going lifestyle as it builds its bridgehead; only one man, Cadmann Weyland, tries to insist on a more cautious and defensive approach, and he is derided for his pains. But Cadmann is proved terribly right, as things start to go mysteriously wrong, and the colonists begin to realise that on Avalon there are complex and lethal biological puzzles which they have not even begun to understand, including the strangest and most dangerous creature any human has ever had to face:- Review(s): "Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle, authors of the international bestsellers 'Footfall' and 'The Mote In God's Eye', here team up with Steven Barnes to present the most convincing and hair-raising novel ever of humans struggling to survive on a strange new world":- (original cost unmarked).

It had been decelerating for weeks and it was still travelling fast enough to escape the Sun's gravity with ease. Now it was heading for Earth. The best brains in the business reckoned that any spacecraft nearing the end of a journey that might have taken centuries would just have to be friendly. But they were wrong!

The battle was bloody and brutal, but the humans triumphed, building a haven for themselves on their island capital of Camelot. Now the colony is flourishing, but a rift has grown between those who remember all too well the horrors of the grendel wars and the youngsters, who yearn for excitement and adventure and dream of claiming the entire planet for human kind. But the dangers awaiting them on the mainland are far greater than anyone could imagine, for lurking there is something even worse than grendels. Something that eats grendels:- Review(s): "Outstanding. The best ever, by the best in the field" - Tom Clancy on 'The Legacy Of Heorot':- (original cost £6.99).

Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. Miller, Kurt - Cover Art (illustrator). First Baen Printing Stated. 385 Pages.The First Baen printing was released February 2020. Book One in the classic Lëgends Heorot Series from Genre Legends Larry Niven, Jerry, Pournelle,and Steven Barnes. The two hundred colonists on board the Geographic have spent a century in cold sleep to arrive here: Avalon, a lush, verdant planet light years from Earth. They hope to establish a permanent colony, and Avalon seems the perfect place. And so they set about planting and building. But their very presence has upset the ecology of Avalon. Soon an implacable predator stalks them, picking them off one by one. In order to defeat this alien enemy, they must reevaluate everything they think they know about Avalon, and uncover the planet's dark secrets. Spine-tingling ecological tale of terror. Few writers have a finer pedigree than those here. The scope of Larry Niven's work is so vast that only a writer of supreme talent could disguise the fact as well as he can. Niven is a true master. Jerry Pournelle is one of science fiction's greatest storytellers.Jerry Pournelle's trademark is first-rate action against well-realized backgrounds of hard science and hardball politics. Barnes gives us characters that are vividly real people, conceived with insight and portrayed with compassion and rare skill and then he stokes the suspense up to levels that will make the reader miss sleep and be late for work. Barnes combines imagination, anthropology and beautiful storytelling as he takes readers to the foot of the Great Mountain, today known as Mount Kilimanjaro.

Robert Heinlein called it "possibly the finest science fiction novel I have ever read". The San Fransisco Chronicle declared that "as science fiction, 'The Mote In God's Eye' is one of the most important novels ever published". Now Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle, award-winning authors of such bestsellers as 'Footfall' and 'The Legacy Of Heorot', return us to the Mote, and to the universe of Kevin Renner and Horace Bury, of Rod Blaine and Sally Fowler. There, twenty-five years have passed since the second Empire of man quarantined the mysterious aliens known only as Moties within the confines of their own solar system. Humanity's finest minds have spent the last quarter century analyzing and agonizing over the deadly threat posed by the only aliens mankind has ever encountered - a race divided into distinct biological forms, each serving a different function. Master. Mediator. Engineer. Warrior. Each supremely adapted to its task, yet doomed by millions of years of evolution to an inescapable fate. For the Moties must breed - or die. And the single wall standing between them and the galaxy beyond is beginning to crumble:- (original cost $22.00).

When the object was first discovered by an observatory in Hawaii and was decided not to be natural, there was mutual suspicion between America and Russia. When the realisation came that Earth was to have its first meeting with alien visitors a welcoming committee was sent to the orbiting space station. There was agreement that a single spacecraft, after journey lasting centuries, must have friendly intentions. They were wrong. Any, and all, weapons launched at the spacecraft were deflected with contemptuous ease. Their motives unknown. The aliens still hadn't brought into play their major weapon known as the "Foot".
