    About this ebook

    Tarik Connar's friend Sahl'and of the Talik people has disappeared. Together with Scarlett vanDyke, his new companion, and Telios, the homunculus hybrid, a creation of the robot ruler Tart-prio, he sets out to find him. A small solar system on the edge of the Taurus stream, an open star cluster in the constellation of Taurus, is his original destination. At least, that is what the TOHIKUM station on Oranak claimed before it retreated into a hypercocoon. "Crisis case time secularization has occurred," Tart-prio reports. Commander Connar unexpectedly finds himself in the middle of an interplanetary confrontation, which he initially survives only by using his special gift.

    Jens Fitscher

    Jens Fitscher war bereits als kleiner Junge begeisterter Leser von Science-Fiction und Fantasy Büchern. Insbesondere liebte er die gängigen Taschenbücher der 70er und 80er Jahre des vorigen Jahrhunderts. Ein starkes Interesse zeigte er dabei für die Protagonisten mit außergewöhnlichen Fähigkeiten. Seine Geschichten handeln immer von starken Persönlichkeiten, die durch ungewöhnliche Umstände über sich selbst hinauswachsen und dafür mit übernatürlichen Fähigkeiten belohnt werden.

      Reality Blinks Again

      Apr 18, 2024

      Ten years ago in my monthly column here I first wrote about something odd that I had noticed in a number of cases (FT315:27). I came to call these fleeting unusual events ‘reality blinks’. But I never took the idea much further. Now, to my surprise,

      The Growing And Weeding Of Dandelions

      The boardroom looked like it belonged in an office building, not a spaceship. The chairs had rolling wheels, there was a cup full of pens on the table, and the floor was carpeted. Spin gravity wasn’t a luxury on the Dandelion, it was a given. Faux wi
