But the primitive Mutes possess ancient powers greater than any machine - ." Book 2. First Family - 1987 reprint ISBN 0722185170 - "After countless years of fighting - of pitting sophisticated technology against the primitive surface-dwelling people who seemed to posses supernatural powers - the Federation was still no nearer to ending the battle with the Mutes. But then a lone flier was hauled into one of its underground bunkers - a man whose very existence was a challenge to the all-pervading wisdom of the First Family. A man whose destiny would determine the future of both the Federation and the Mutes." Book 3. Iron Master - 1987 first printing ISBN 0722185189 - "The year: 2990. The centuries-old conflict between the hi-tech underground world of the Trackers and the primitive surface-dwelling Mutes continues with unabated ferocity. Steve Brickman a Tracker wingman whose heart and mind is torn between the two cultures embarks upon his most dangerous mission yet: the rescue of Cadillac and Clearwater two gifted Plainfolk Mutes held captive by the mysterious Iron Masters. It is a nightmare journey into the unknown but once again a shadowy presence guides Steve's footsteps and endows him with superhuman speed and strength in moments of mortal danger." Book 4. Blood River - 1990 reprint ISBN 0747400008 - "On the snow-swept overground Steve Cadillac and Clearwater meet with triumph and disaster as they try to evade the clutches of both the Iron Masters and the First Family. The samurai of Ne-Issan prove to be tenacious adversaries and the rulers of the Federation have no intention of loosening their grip on Steve Brickman. For he and his friends are valuable pawns in a game which if lost could spell the end of the First Family's dream of reconquering the blue-sky world. Book 5. Death-Bringer - 1989 first printing ISBN 0747400016 - "With Clearwater now safely in their hands the Federation hatches a plan to capture Cadillac and Mr Snow and annihilate the Clan McCall: a plan which forces Steve to continue his double role as loyal agent of the Federation and blood-brother of the Mutes. The First Family is hell-bent on exacting retribution for past defeats but the twice-bloodied House of Yama-Shita is also thirsting for vengeance. Both parties blindly pursue their own ends unaware that the outcome is governed not by force of arms but by the irrevocable power of prophecy."

THE RING.
New York: Doubleday 1988. 467 pp 9 1/2" H "Centuries ago men died for the chance to posses the Ring to be the master of its powers. But the Sisterhood which protected it grew weary of the fighting. At last they fled to an alien planet to keep the Ring in peace. Now in the paradise city of Parliament the genetically designed psychic Rulers possess the power of the Ring which the Sisterhood still guards. On Earth the Rulers have reigned as gods for generations. In the Arctic North Lands Giants twice the height of human men are secretly perfecting the science of terraforming in exchange for a share of the Ring's might. In the Valley which joins the two lands thousands of Workers have long served as slaves to Rulers and Giants alike. Though the three races have reached an uneasy truce war will come again. And this time the Workers will be prepared. Cain of Eastmarch a telepath who once nearly joined the Rulers leads the Workers. But to truly claim victory Cain must first steal the Ring from the Sisterhood - and suffer their curse." Minor wear at bottom of hinges very small shallow bump on bottom edge of rear board. Dust jacket has some very light edge wrinkling very light rubbing on rear panel. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. Doubleday Hardcover

San Francisco: Night Shade Books 2012. 279 pp large 8vo 9 1/4" H. "1864. London is a city in transition. The Constantine Affliction - a strange malady that kills some of its victims and physically transforms others into the opposite sex - has spread scandal and upheaval through society. Scientific marvels and disasters such as clockwork courtesans the alchemical fires of Whitechapel electric carriages and acidic monsters lurking in the Thames have forever altered the face of the city. Pembroke 'Pimm' Halliday is an aristocrat with an interest in criminology who uses his keen powers of observation to assist the police or private individuals - at least when he's sober enough to do so. Ellie Skyler who hides her gender behind the byline 'E. Skye' is an intrepid journalist driven by both passion and necessity to uncover the truth no matter where it lies. When Pimm and Skye stumble onto a dark plot that links the city's most notorious criminal overlord with the Queen's new consort famed scientist Sir Bertram Oswald they soon find the forces of both high and low society arrayed against them. Can they save the city from the arcane machinations of one of history's most infamous monsters - and uncover the shocking origins of 'The Constantine Affliction'" Very minor wrinkling at top/bottom of spine.
